Why one can experience electrical Shock due to Voltage or
Current?? or both voltage or current??

Answer Posted / vknt

only the amount of current flowing through the human body is
the cause of electric shock not the voltage.
a human can withstand up to 50V DC without feeling shock.
because the current is very less to feel the shock.
if at the same voltage(50V) we pass 100mA through a human
body using a current source, he will get a severe electric
shock.
