| 1392268 | 2015-01-16 18:35:00 | “Mr Smith, a safety-certified lighting technician” “Deputy Chief Fire Officer Trevor Gallagher said Mr Smith had used a Leatherman tool, which has folding blades and pliers, to cut the teenagers' cable connected to a campground power box” Yes....now hang on, I'm not electrically certified at all. I know nothing about power... But. Wouldn't you A)Just unplug it? B)Notice, once you had unplugged it, that the noise was continuing? (They were using a battery powered radio apparently.) C)OK, cut it because they'd plug it back in, and you haven't noticed that unplugging it didn't help, but wouldn't you cut the plug off the caravan end? Not the live end? For 2 reasons, one thing to damage the caravans plug, another to damage the campgrounds power feed..... And of course....the live end is well....live. Maybe he was as drunk as a skunk. |

That must have been what he was thinking too, but unfortunately if you leave the Caravan Lead plugged into the Distribution Box it doesn't matter which end you cut off because both ends are alive. Short of suicide it is hard to fathom an explanation from the media details. :confused: |
