@azonenberg@ioc.exchange Bobsdecline's Youtube channel has showed a tool that let's them open a standard cutout when it is still under load. It maintains a connection across the cutout while the fuse was removed and then it had a contact that could actually break the load safely. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvK4FyLHqRA

    @kevswims@hachyderm.io Yep, I'm aware of loadbusters (and am subscribed to his channel). The load-break cutouts are designed to be operated with a standard hot stick and include the load break internally so you don't need any other tools. I see them used a lot around here on new construction any time there's a sideline feeding more than a handful of customers.
