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

Answer Posted / vignesh

Voltage and Current are depending with each other. Voltage
and Current will be defined based on the load resistance.
When the load(Human Body) has high resistance, there wont
be any current. Then you wont get any shock. Think ...you
are getting shock when you touch a coin cell your tonque.
But you wont get the shock, when you touch with your hand.
Because you have more resistance in your hand and less
resistance in your tonque
Conclusion:
SHOCK IS DUE TO THE RESISTANCE OF THE HUMAN BODY
