ELECTRICITY

Current kills 10 mA for women 15 mA for men Through the heart

Resistance Skin resistance

About 500 kW when dry About 1 kW when wet

Internal resistance About 80 – 600 W

ELECTRICITY

Stay dry Avoid electricity through the heat

One hand in pocket. Don’t work alone or when tiered No headphones on

ELECTRICITY

Repairing equipment Make sure you have no current in the system Discharge capacitors Power off unplug
