Subject: RE: BS: Shock Risk from AA Batteries/Water?
By the way. Do not trust a GFCI. Treat every circuit as if it is not protected in any way. I always wear proper work boots. You would not believe the amount of faulty (pun inteneded) GFCI receptacles I have seen in my building inspection buisness. Personally, I would wire all such circuits from GFCI breakers AND use GFCI receptacles... hey, for six bucks a crack, why not? The breakers don't cost any more either.
