Answer / nithi

shock is depending on the amount of current flowing through
our body not on voltage (whatever the voltage level,it may
be even from 30v to some 100KV).
Again, the current thr'o our body depends on
the condition of body (dry or wet).
so,voltage doesnot have effect on shocking. if
the current exceeds the permissible limit ,then we will get
shock.
for example,we can touch even the power line which is
operating with the voltage of 765KV ,PROVIDED
1.SAFE CLEARANCE B/W GROUND & THE LINE.
2.GOOD CLEARANCE B/W THE TOUCH LINE & THE NEARBY LINE.
EX: crow doesn't get shock whereas peacock gets shock.

Answer / nishant2110

certainly current is one which directly responsible for
electric shock. But if we think it carefully both current
and voltage are responsible for electric shock directly or
indirectly..Suppose humen body has fixed resistance(ignore
the condition like wet or dry). If there will be voltage
across ur body, current will flow through it.if current is
beyond limit(30mA), one will got shocked.
But is it possible to think of current if there is no
voltage or is it possible to think of voltage without
presence of current through any conductor?.

Isn't it question like which comes first" Hen or Egg"?

So both voltage n current are responsible for electric
shock, depends which of them has crossed the limit.

Answer / shri..

Because of voltage

if we touch the 12 V 180 ah battery we dosent feel shock
but we touch to 440 V 0.5 A we feel shock

Answer / jaswinder singh

Electricity can be dangerous because of Current flowing
through human body. If we touch a bare wire of 440 volts at
zero potential difference then we will not get shock. The
best example is that the birds can't get shocked from the
high or extra high voltage bare conductors.

Answer / vinod singh

shock depends on both voltage as well as current level. the
minimum value of voltage level should be 50V and that of
current should be 30mA. This answer is verifed by me while
testing the MCCB in test lab having voltage only at 10V and
current was at higher side and it was safe .

Answer / varun kumar

yes this is because of volage.higher the voltage sock will
be more.
