The most Dangerous Job for any Electrician #hendythesparky Fixing a 200 AMP Service LIVE🤯

What happens here

To reach the upper sections of the service cable that need re-strapping, the crew must increase their working height. This is achieved in two stages: first, the platform of the Baker scaffold is raised to a higher level. Then, for even greater reach, an extension ladder is placed directly on top of the scaffold platform, allowing the electrician to access the very top of the service cable near the eaves of the house.

Goal: Gain access to the highest sections of the service cable for complete re-strapping.

Tools and materials

  • Baker Scaffold BI-JAX — Providing a base for the ladder and initial elevation
  • Extension Ladder Werner — Further increasing the vertical reach from the scaffold platform
