Post subject:  Energized Electrical Work Permit

Scenario,
I am an Electrician who is troubleshooting a Motor Control Bucket in an MCC that is running a Production Process. ARC Flash PPE is on, I open the MCC bucket use my DMM to determine that the MCC Bucket disconnect is indeed open and the Voltage on the Motor Controls in this particular bucket are in a ESWC (Electrically Safe Work Condition). My [1st question is, Can I now take my PPE off and continue working in this bucket or Do I need to keep My PPE on do to the fact that the line side of the Disconnect in this bucket is hot even though it is guarded. MY 2nd question is, is this considered Hot work because the line side of the breaker is still hot therefore requiring me to fill out am Electrical Hot Work Permit?
