I am not a big supporter of OSHA; however, I did on one occasion hit a 440V circuit breaker to restart a dynamometer and due to a crack in the switch I got a significant jolt which almost took me out. Maybe the leather gloves is not such a bad idea. After that time I reset the switch with a long wooden stick.

Well 10 oz is 10 ounces then so a jug isn't gonna look like much...in retrospect that 10 oz. of real weight is likely equivalent to a pound worth of burn.
Dothe Fire Service HAZMAT training that I haveand much things OSHA can be realized.....despite most it being total BS in real world application.
New regs just out....those flipping breakers in our plant, ie: the maintenance crew...must wear specified clothes, leather gloves, a hard hat,and a face shield. Technically, because we turn the lights off and on by flipping breakers, they must suit up or we risk OSHA fines.Rediculous "idiot proofing"in my opinion...........
