When I took electric car classes and we opened up the batteries they kept an insulated pole with a hook on the end in case one of us fell on something high voltage. We were taught how to use the pole to drag another student off of the battery. A lot of us also got yelled at by the instructor for stepping into the danger zone.

Our employers were supposed to supply us with 1000 volt gloves and send them in for certification every 6 months. They never did that in the 9 years I was working on electric cars and only replaced the gloves once or twice.
