As a teenager in high school, in Colorado Springs, taking Vocational
Electronics, I worked at an exquisite in-home test equipment repair shop,
Clyde Still Electronics. He was a factory authorized repair center for B&K,
Simpson, Triplett, HP, Fluke, etc.
Most of what we did was repair and calibration. I was knocked off my stool
a number of times... not more than TWICE... calibrating instruments on the
NBS certified standards. When you're dealing with 1K+ volts you get
careful, of course it's the current that counts.

All you have to do is spot weld one screwdriver, and you'll never forget...

The HV and no user serviceable parts warnings are there for a reason,
having worked on high powered tube broadcast transmitters I learned very
early never to touch HV gear until it's been properly grounded and
discharged :-)
