Electrical Shocks?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / protagonist
A human body can withstand a current of 10ma to 11ma. Above
11ma it may be dangerous or may lead to severe shock.

Answer / hussain
current greater than 15 mA can cause death. this why hand
held tools are 42 V or 110V ac with centre tap ( means 55
V ) and human resistance at 50V is 4000 ohms and that
produces 12.5 mA ( less than 15 ma).
Most ideal to use is 42 V where human reistance is 4200
ohms resulting in 10 mA the safest.

Answer / shailesh
It is 50mA, and for human safety, Mostly we are using 30mA
ELCB or RCCB in the circuits.

Answer / prakash
Human body can with stand upto 30 mA of current . If the person is obese his sustainning capacity is less than 30ma for slim person it will be upto 40 ma.
