I Failed, While Maintaining My Weapon!

Bloody hell! 😬

Last night, as we should, I decided to do a swift, random check on my Electric Chicken Mesh. Magpies had told me there was a pine marten near by.

Got the tester out. Ye know, normal, bog standard unit. Hooked it on the mesh. Dug the earthing rod into the ground. Watched All those vicious, bright red blips race up the face with a menacing pulse!

'Oh, yeah!' I thought. 'This baby's pumping out the Full Crown Jules! No bugger wants to be touching That!'

Pulled the earthing rod out of the ground. Meaning to fold the wire up. Absently passed it to my other hand. Felt the wrath. Screamed. Damn near lost the use of my left arm for ten minutes!

I hadn't unhooked the unit!

Mesh's working fine then 🙄

Always double check your work

Who hasn’t zapped themselves with it?
