You would be surprised at the places where the NEC doesn't apply, and I
wouldn't bet money that it would apply here. Still, the laws of physics
always apply and any such installation where people must handle
energized conductors would certainly need to be built to some stringent
safety standard.


As a general rule of thumb, the NEC applies to things connected to the
electrical grid, so my guess is that it would apply.

Not that it matters in the slightest as this will never become reality.
