neutral  Tony M: Doesn't quite ring true here — 'live' on its own, maybe, but no reason to add 'tension'; I think this means the voltage present (or the fact that voltage is present) even with the breaker open.

neutral  Kim Metzger: Why not translate 'General breaker always under voltage if OFF'?

live tension with general breaker in off position
sous tension même avec disjoncteur général ouvert


Explanation:
In that case, with the additional context, we know that the source EN is definitely flawed, and this is what it ought to mean.
Depending which bits are "sous tension" when they shouldn't be, you might need to specify 'appareil / parties / éléments' etc.
