Always secure and tag circuit breaker in OFF position or disconnect equipment's power

shower is a wet environment capable of posing an electrical shock hazard when
personnel have direct contact with energized wires or metal parts. Failure to observe this
safety warning may result in serious injury or death to personnel.
