If person hangs in HT line (single hand or both hands) does
he get shock?

Birds seating in HT line does not get shock because circiut
doesnot complete .If man hangs in the single line also he
wont get th shock beacuse ther is no complete path for
current to flow .but if Man or Bird touches other line and
there would be closed circuit now and there shold be shock .

IF A MAN HANGS ON HT LINES HE DOESNT GET ANY SHOCK BECAUSE
FOR THE CURRENT TO FLOW THERE SHOULD BE A POTENTIAL
DIFFERENCE AND IF THE MAN HANGS WITH TWO HANDS THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEEN THE POTENTIALS OF TWO POINTS HE HANGS
FROM IS NOT PREDOMINANT AND IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO GIVE
SHOCK.

Answer / rinchen
to get shock, it is mainly with the potential difference.
when the bird sits on HT lines the potential difference
created between thier two legs are negligible, whereby
there will be no current according to the relation
V=IR; Sicne V=0, R=constant(birds body
resistance). I=V/R
I=0/R =0AMPS.
And similarly when the man hangs, it creates less
potential difference, so no shocks experiences.

Answer / aniket
as birds sit on single line not toching any other wire then
it will not get shock as circuit will not complete so is the
case with man if he touches the wire single then he will not
get shock but when comes in touch with other wire it will
get shock

Answer / venugopal
For getting shock,a person should gt in contact with both
phase wires forming a path .......
hanging around with one wire will not make any sense for
shock....

Answer / shafiq dhaka
birds don't get shock because the length of bird's body is small. If a human touches the H.T line then he get shock. Bcz human body is
Variable registance. There will be potential difference betwen touching point and lowest point of the body. And shock level is depend on length of the body. For exampl, if a man body height is 2ft he will get less shock(it may cauz to die) but if body height is 6ft then he will burn. Thats y H.T line workers use special gloves though they touch live line from helicopter.

How do we measure earth fault current in Generator Transformer(20/420kv),Station Transformer(20/11 kv) and Unit Transformers(20/11kv) for our plant system, since these don't have any Neutral earth Fault relay connected to their Neutral Earth? But for Unit Service transformers(11/.433 Kv) we have an Earth Fault Relay connected to its neutral earth.Why is such so?
