I remember one time I was at a large industrial site working on a cabinet cooler (dedicated air conditioning for large electrical cabinets) on a motor drive cabinet which was was running 480V 3 phase with feeder wires the size of my thumb when their safety guy walked by and saw me poking at the cooler fan with a screwdriver.
