Well, presumably she could have summoned help.
THis reminds me of a rule I don't think I've ever broken. If you are working
on live high-voltaeg stuff, make sure there's somebody else with you who
knows how to turn off the power and fetch help if you do connect
yourself across the amins.

I never work on anything w/o a cutoff that I completely control (know
who is in a house for instance, and where they are, and cut the power
with knowledge that they won't turn it back on on me) or where I can
padlock the mains off. Same goes for gas. A fellow I know was
working on a furnace and someone turned on the gas on him because he had
not padlocked it. Not fun.
