There isn't an isolator, but I was under the impression that it would
be reasonably safe to do this live, since you would only be working
with one wire, which would only become live once it inserted into the

Whilst I've worked with live wires quite often I think I'd draw the
line at working with a live wire which had an almost limitless current
capacity and no human-friendly protective devices downwind.

Slightly different matter when you've got an RCD on the circuit
protecting your arse.

YMMV.
