As they say in the electrical trade "Prove Test Prove"

This means take your test instrument and prove it works on a known source,
test the circuit to be worked on to see if it is dead then test instrument
and prove it works on a known source again to make shore your meter is still
working.

Then use a minimum of two points of isolation with a sign stating why the
circuit is dead.

Another words as a professional electrician I do not work on live wiring
unless absolutely necessary - then with precautions.
