[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 269469, member: 250"] As a general rule it is quite hard to get a serious electric shock off any telecommunications cables.. as such the only inconvenience to the cable being accidentally cut is loss of service... You could go out and cut through the cable with uninsulated cutters and bare feet without too much of a zap! If the phone happens to be ringing at the time then a bit more current is flowing.... you can cut and terminate live telephone cables without too much hassle... and the data side isn't much worse... The bottom line is:- Cost to install -vs- Safety and dangers due to installation method... Cheapest and quickest wins providing they are not endangering the public! ;) [/QUOTE]
