I'm painting my house by hand, no sprayer. What am I supposed to do around the power lines entering the house? I see things online saying the electric company will put a shield or sleeve around them, but my power company says no. They tell me to stay away from the lines. How is that feasible? Am I really supposed to leave a huge unpainted spot there? Seems ridiculous.
The wires are insulated with no apparent damage to the insulation, and I'm on a fiberglass ladder, so I think it shouldn't electrocute me, but i don't know enough about electricity to be 100% sure. Obviously I'm not trying to touch the lines but there is a chance I may by accident. Suggestions/solutions please!
