Data record instr.live-line-tool-tester.wet-versus-dry

Verified 2026-10-27 Confidence: High

A tool is tested dry and then wet, the wet test being made after the tool is lightly misted with distilled or deionized water; silicone or wax applied to the surface can fill scratches and voids and produce a false pass on the wet test.
