True enough. I wonder what the frying time of human flesh at 400v is. 60 seconds maybe?? Mmmmm, smells like chicken...prehistoric wrote:You wouldn't have lasted long in the environment where ....... some of those bus bars were floating at 400 volts.
That reminds me of another mistake I made - I was given the job of replacing the faulty "ON/OFF" switch in an 80 column card punch and I happily yanked the spade wires off the back of the switch - having forgotten to unplug the cord from the wall. Zzzzzt.
I managed to throw the switch right across the room and swore like a trooper, much to the customers amusement. Lesson learned.
