Surprise! There is data available on this one. 1019 deaths occurred in the construction field between the years 1992 and 1998. Most were due to unexpected contact with electrical current because lock out / tag out procedures were not implemented.
Believe it or not, it is pretty hard for a healthy person to die from household currents. The levels are somewhat painful, but death is not the normal outcome with even basic precautions.
House hold current in the is 20 amps. It takes a minimum of 0.2 amps to Kill the avrage person. Also, electricity travles at nerly the speed of light and a cirrcuit breaker can not trip that fast. There is a good chance that you will get electrocuted from the amprage off of the 1200volt transformer that feeds your house.
Each year about 3,000 people are treated in hospital emergency rooms for injuries associated with electricity. Almost 10,000 fires result from damaged or overloaded cords and plugs each year.
As little as 50-100 volts of electricity can be fatal to a cat. It's important to keep all electrical cords and outlets out of reach of pets to prevent accidents. If you suspect your cat has been electrocuted, seek immediate veterinary attention.
45 volts
There are 20,000 volts in 20 kV (kilovolts).
none!
13,800 volts 1 kv = 1 kilovolt = 1000 volts
4.5~5.3
6 volts
As little as 50-100 volts of electricity can be fatal to a cat. It's important to keep all electrical cords and outlets out of reach of pets to prevent accidents. If you suspect your cat has been electrocuted, seek immediate veterinary attention.
12 volts DC.
Take it to the vet right away!!!!
You require about 24 volts to power the windshield wiper.
24 Volts.
The U.S. chose 110-120 volts because it is safer than 220-240 volts. Far less chance of getting electrocuted on the lower voltage.
Volts don't make power. Watts do. Watts = (volts) x (amps) 1 horsepower = 746 watts
How many volts woud it take to charge a laptop
Well you may just get electrocuted!
Well you may just get electrocuted!
