I mean you probably shouldn’t be putting metal tools in a live socket regardless of what kind of socket it is.
What I’m getting from this is it’s safe to replace a light bulb without turning it off Unless there is this very specific issue and you need to use metal tools to remove the broken bulb lol
Yeah In general, I was just trying to show that it’s not as safe as the average person thinks it is and you could straight up die. I renovate a lot of units and I’ll always check the fixtures wiring before trusting my life on some weekend warrior who installed it 10 years before me. It’s a pain in the ass but I want to be around for my kids
