Induction

I am now re building a 69kv line next to a 230kv line. a journeyman and i were making up jumpers on a switch pole .we did not have the line grounded at the time .because we knew it was de-energized because we had been working on it all day. when we went to cut the jumper. the jour. said don't get in between it. so he held one side and i held the other and i cut it. he let his side rest on the bucket and got me the nuts for the shoe. when he handed me the nuts the bucket lit up. his hip was touching his side of the jumper. I am an Ape. . and that was my first lesson in induction. I had no idea that induction could get that bad. take it very seriously i know that jour. and I will from now on.....lucky
