- 1Electrical ShockCurrent is the flow of electrons measured in Amperes (A)
Very small levels of current can ultimately kill you. (e.g. milliamperes: mA)
To receive an electric shock you must become part of the circuit. - 20.5mA - 2mAThreshold of perception
- 32mA - 10mAPainful sensation, increasing with current
- 410mA - 25mACramp and inability to let go. Increase in blood pressure. Breathing difficulties caused by muscular contractions of the lungs
- 525mA - 80mASevere muscular contractions sometimes with bone fractures. Increased blood pressure. Loss of consciousness from heart and breathing failure
- 680mA +Burns at point of contact. Death from heart failure.
