Depends upon the source/cause of explosion and your contact at that moment with conductor of electricity.
The electrical safety symbol is a stylized lightning flash. It warns about the possibility of electric shock, burns, or arc flash.

"An arc flash is a violent surge of energy from an electrical source. Arc flashes can cause fatal burns over 10 feet away from the electrical source. The temperatures of an arc flash can reach 35,000 degrees."
The most effective means is to turn off all power to equipment before conducting any work on it. No power, no shock, blast or arc-flash.
An arc flash is an electrical explosion cause by low impedance connection to ground or another voltage stage in the electrical system. It is a good idea to stay away from an act like this.
There are three main types of electrical hazards: Shock, Arc Flash and Blast .
Grounded, with any electrical circuit, means there is a firm connection to earth, to prevent danger of electric shock or arc discharge.
Electrical shock is a safety hazard because:the electric current can cause your heart to stopthe electric current can cause severe burnsthe shock can throw you across a room or cause you to fall from a ladder or other height.
An electrical arc, yes.
Yes, water will explode in a plasma arc. Just spray water into a welding arc and you'll see it happen first hand (not recommended). Water arc explosions are used in metal forming and mining.
Arc Fault Circuit Interuptor. It is a breaker designed to sense an electrical arc that may cause a fire. It then opens the circuit shutting off the power and hopefully saving someones home.
Arc flash safety training is a type of safety training that is designed to educate workers about the hazards of electrical arc flash and how to prevent injuries from occurring. Arc flash is a dangerous electrical explosion that can occur when high electrical currents flow through the air. This explosion produces a bright flash of light, a loud noise, and a blast of heat that can cause severe burns, blindness, and other injuries. During arc flash safety training, workers will learn about the causes of arc flash, how to identify the potential for arc flash in their work environment, and how to protect themselves from arc flash hazards. They will also learn about the personal protective equipment (PPE) that is required to be worn when working with or near electrical equipment, as well as how to properly use and maintain this equipment. Other topics that may be covered in arc flash safety training include emergency response procedures, first aid for electrical burns, and electrical safety regulations and standards.
