Today, on site, my client was certain she had switched off her electric fence prior to me conducting an inspection of her boundary retaining wall. I overbalanced on my ladder and grabbed at the fence wires for support. The electricity was not switched off. FML

Ouch! I'm sorry OP! Hopefully it wasn't a high voltage fence. Although, you should have made sure because people are stupid

You should have been the one to turn it off and lock it out.

Watt was the reason you didn't check it for yourself?

You must be great at your job to know that something is not right just through feeling something. You should get a bonus.

Ydi, plain and simple. It is your safety so don't take word of random anybody. Test it yourself. If you don't have tools for that at least make them touch it first, lol

Lock out tag out. If you didn't do it or check it, assume it wasn't done.

Never been electrocuted but can't imagine it feels too good, but I hope it wasn't as bad as it sounds OP.
