My only concern is getting a shock or shorting everything out! I plan
to cute the white sheath away very carefully and then to deal with each
wire individually. Can I get a shock in this way?


The standing voltage on the line is 48v so no, you won't get a shock off it.
However, if someone happens to ring you while you're hold of the wires,
you'll get a belt then. Can't remember if ringing voltage is 88 or 110 but
either way you'll know about it )
