why electric shock due to dc is dangerous than that of ac

Answer Posted / haribabu dasari

due to electric shock (a.c or dc)human nerves bring to
contrast wheather it is a.c or d.c. electric shock is
danger if human touch the conductor with palm, current
flows through human body, nerves undergo contrast finger
nerves also undergo contrast human hand grip the
conductor,this effects continuty of flow of current through
human body.(most of the people wrongly believes that D.C
current attracts human body,actually the fact is our hand
grip the conductor).if human touch the conductor with back
side of palm, nerves under go contrast, this will effects
hand bring far to the conductor,this effects human
disconnected from electric shock.(most of the people
wrongly believes that A.C current repel human body,actually
the fact is our body&hand bring far to the conductor due to
nerves contrast). a.c & d.c both are equal in danger.actual
danger is the way in which human touch the
conductor,wheather it is a.c or d.c.
