" EdSpeaking of hands, it has been a while since I have seen a reference
to the following: Keep one hand in your pocket when around potentially
(no pun intended) lethal voltages; most deaths from electricity
occur when there is a current path thru the chest cavity, which is
more difficult w/o both hands.

This has been standard practice since I was in high school,
ca 1940. It is an excellent idea and specifically covered in some
of Richard Hull's excellent videos.
