    Mescom linemen themselves have been dying at regular intervals, while on maintenance duty, due to lack of basic safety knowledge and precautions, then speaking about gullible laymen is just out of question!

    Firstly, touching the transformer and installing the fuse was a big mistake. This person is not a Mescom employee or an authorized person to install a fuse in the transformer. And no one should make such a mistake. May God grant peace to his soul.
