Hilarious how plenty of people criticize you because you "look young", touting their electrician credentials or whatever. To my eyes, you're an engineer, and have at least a bachelors level of understanding in electrical engineering. You also analyze the problem pretty well, so why would anyone think that you were some tenage hack playing with electricity? You make a pretty good case that the current/duration chart is misleading or wrong, and that voltage and frequency play an important role in the effect on the body. Good job styropyro.

The transformer is in its very nature isolating since the windings are not physically connected, but magnetically coupled. The GFCI cannot protect in this manner. It picks up the imbalance of current between hot and neutral in the circuit and cannot sense if ground current is flowing on the secondary of the isolated HV output. Hope I explained that ok...

Hey there, I really liked the beginning of your video when you said "people said you're wrong"... I haven't watched the original yet.... Anyway, I'm an electrician and get asked this question often, and generally answer with "It's both and other factors such as time and conductivity" or i just say "Yes" (which tends to piss people off) ... Time is a major factor.... this is why, as a sparky if I work on live wiring/switchboards or whatever, I always put my body in a stance that if I get zapped I with fall away from the conductor (live parts), so I will only get zapped for a very short time.... I'm in australia so I mainly work on 240v or 415v... However, I very very rarely work on DC voltages over 50V. Sorry for the rant, but I will like and subscribe right now. Please keep making cool vids like this!! Kind regards, Craig DeGruyter.

I'm very fortunate that the company I worked for at the time paid for it, so long as I worked for them full time, and my grades stayed at A+ I could be remembering that wrong, but I'm certain it was A+ grades. It took four years of an apprenticeship while working, so at minimum 1,000 documented hours of electrical work to get my Journeyman license. After that, I needed at least one year of working as a Journeyman to be able to take the Masters test to become eligible for a Master electrician license. Once I had finished all of that, my State's Department of Regulatory Agencies (Division of Professions and Occupations) reviewed everything and approved my license, granting me the title of Master Electrician. In the US, it varies state by state, but it's generally correct that someone must have at least 1,000 hours of work in one trade, then approval from a board of directors to be certified as a Master of their trade. I hope that helps explain the process!

If anyone was wondering, the sign he holds up at the intro says "Don't Enter, Kills!" ( Не влезай, Убьет! ) which is basically Cyrillic "DANGER KEEP OUT!" There is a lack of fluff and subtle politeness in some Slavic languages that I just adore. I also love that you stuck "you sound and look like a lesbian" in with the other criticism about amps vs. volts. That was masterful.

True! He's really deep into the matter and cares well what he's doing and saying. While a lot of other so called experts are just repaeting nonsense they have read or heard somewhere. One example on how horribly wrong these things can go is this here: some time ago I've read an doctoral thesis of a so called "master of science" about how the old charge and energy limits of 50 µC and 350 mJ are bull shit as this is not realistic and would limit the amount of energy electrostatic machines and devices can hold to way too low valuesto be effective. It is true that IEC 60479-2 states that the low risk of ventricular fibrillation for a healthy adult starts at around 3-5 mC (c1 line). But this just a roof limit for the *immediate risk of death* and not a green card to all kinds of stupidities one can do with electricity below these limits. Also energy will increase with the same charge being delivered at higher and higher voltages causing a unique danger on its own with all its effects on it own. As I've done quite a few experiments with electric pulses from various devices on my own body I can tell pretty much which kind of signal creates what kind of effects. I pointed out to the person in question that the electrical charge as a measure is right for stimulus strength from short pulses but that there are a few problems with the precise values given for *health danger*. Health danger is not only limited to *death from electrocution*. Even a strong muscle cramp causing damage to nerves and muscle tissue would be enough to set a limit way below 5 mC. In my experience one should never go over 10 -15 µC, if possible, as this gives you already a strong shock you won't repeat and gives you some pain in the ass for several hours in your arm. Also one has to consider the worst case scenario. Just throwing funny numbers and concepts all around the space withoput knwoing what they mean in a specific context means nothing. I am talking about large surface contact areas and shocks being strong enough to cause some kind of significant harm to health. Also one has to look at energy seperately for thermal, physical and chemical damage to the cells. Also it is about situations where one can expose themselves safely to voltages and body currents without the need to switch of the voltage. So if the stuff is too strong just take other measures in order to work without any contact to dangerous voltage. Also they have set the value for long term contact voltage to E Now I wrote a lot about this and I could write een more but what is important is that always be sceptical about what others tell you, even your own teachers and masters and try to educate yourself as best as possible.

This is the best video about these misconsceptions I have seen so far. First I mainly expected the basic description I give when someone asks me (people do because I am an electrical engineer). To keep it short I tell them "you need current running through you for a long enough time interval to kill you, to get that you need enough voltage to overcome the resistance of your body and it is different for DC and AC and different for different AC frequencies so don't touch anything". I like that you went further and you quantified things too. The charts you show for current and duration and for perception by nerves were a ton of information by themselves and the measurements on the static shock and the tesla coil were great too. It never actually occured to me that above certain frequency you stop feeling, your nerves running your heard do not react either and the danger is basically is down to heating tissues by the passing current. But seeing it now it makes perfect sense. And you made a bunch of condescending people look all manner of stupid which is always fun 🙂. Thank you for the great video.

@InTimeTraveller

Жыл бұрын

Remember the basic physics law that higher frequencies have more trouble travelling further because they dissipate energy faster. Ohm's law might not mean shit for the human body, but still if you replace the resistance in the equation with the complex impedance you'll see that you get a much lower current out of a given voltage at higher frequencies. So it makes sense that higher frequency currents are less dangerous.

Fun fact about the Osha 50v regulation: in my recent electrical safety cert training the instructor talked about how at the time those regulations were established the telephone companies had a substantial lobby, and they happened to operate their lines at 48 volts, so yeah the real reason the limit is set at 50v is bc the telephone companies didn't want to be regulated and they could pay enough to strongarm the govt lol.

Charge your phones, have lights and more in a blackout. Also it used to be telephone company, not companies. Bell ran the world and invented everything.

I mean this is true, but bear in mind engineers certainly didn’t choose 48V by accident. I’m sure much effort was made to find a compromise voltage that minimized transmission losses while maintaining an acceptable safety margin. No way 48V was chosen by accident!

You can put a bare LED across a phone line with no current limiting resistor, and the LED lights about normal (I'm talking like an indicator LED, not a high brightness lighting LED). I discovered that as a kid playing with LEDs and phone lines. So yes, you get "free power" from the phone company if you still have a landline that runs to your house, but the amount of power you can actually get from it is minuscule. It certainly will NOT charge a phone during a power outage. Now as an adult (and engineer), I'd actually measure the voltage and current with an LED across the phone line, if I had a phone line.
