The pencil trick works, you just have to remember to wear good rubber gloves.

FWIW, one company I went to work for gave me a used pair of high voltage rubber gloves to use on some 4160 volt stuff I would be working on. No inspection markings on them so I asked the boss when were they last tested. He looked at me kinda oddly and said that they'd never been tested but they would send them out to be tested. The test facility threw them out as they were full of holes, a death trap waiting to bite.
