Tried to install a panel in a crawlspace last Tuesday and the customer's cat knocked my flashlight into the mud right as I was landing the last wire

Had to finish the last two connections by feel using the glow from my phone screen, which took 20 extra minutes but at least the panel booted up first try, anyone else ever get stuck working in the dark like that?

I've been there, literally feeling around in the dark like a raccoon trying to fix a circuit. My phone screen gave off just enough light to see my fingers, but I kept grabbing the wrong screwdriver. Honestly, it's a miracle I didn't zap myself or short something out.

Hey @ellis.jennifer I think you meant screw not screwdriver, a multimeter is what you'd grab.
