I am not an electrician, but it seems inherently dangerous to make a circuit ‘live’ with the ends exposed.

I don’t know how many times I have opened a ceiling tile to discover exposed wires from M/C and open junction boxes. I tag the tile with painters tape, so the next person on the crew is aware of the danger, and inform the MFIC.
