I worked as a mechanic for a company that did high line work. Rubber tires will not insulate the truck. I've seen bucket trucks which the booms are insulated with all tires blown out. Only one of ours but, when this happens at one company usually every company gets a report and a picture for safety reasons. Also, a completely dead disconnected line can kill a person. One of our guys died when they were pulling and spooling a dead line. There was no way this line could have touched anything live. A foreman didn't have his safety equipment on. He grabbed the wire to help it spool straight. He never knew what hit him. It was windy that day. Wind going past that line caused a static charge. This is a true story. Stay away from any power lines live or dead!!!!!
