    You robbed this straight from AI.
    You let that wrench that you are using to disconnect the hot terminal hit something metal and see if it won’t spark.

    you are correct though. And it won’t create an arc from the cable to the terminal. It will if you do it the other way. Risk of harm is relatively minor though if you do it wrong. So long as you haven’t used a can of starting fluid or alcohol to clean them.

    You guys ever had a battery blow up? I was working in a shop and a guy left it on the charger too long.

    it’s pretty amazing the noise and damage it makes

    I have never done that. Have seen or been around when others have. Seen a few on chargers catch fire. That’s always fun…..
