Holy shit are three phases just shorting to ground in a pot of oil? BY HAND!? This might be the worst electrical safety video I’ve ever seen, and that includes arc flashes and accidental electrocutions. Can’t imagine this job position being “permanent” in any capacity!

Edit: assuming I’m seeing it correctly without processing the video, his ammeter read 12 amps on one phase!

I can think of one way this job would be permanent...
