stallion | Tech: electrical shock danger to be aware of (51* d) | RE: Tech: electrical shock danger to be aware of | 13 Oct 12 |
Apparently the current required to kill someone is a current greater than 30 milli amps at a duration greater than 40 milli seconds, hence the requirement in BS7671 (UK) for 30mA RCD to be fitted to circuits which hand held portable equipment can used ( and all out door equipment) also cables buried in the fabric of the building should also be covered in case one should put a nail through a hidden cable. |
