In this video, I address the age old question: Is it the volts or amps that kill?
I originally covered this topic in a short video: • Is it the volts or amp...
However, my explanation there seemed to generate a lot of controversy among "professionals" that work with electricity. I decided to make a more thorough explanation with this video. However, my stance on the matter is unchanged!

Hilarious how plenty of people criticize you because you "look young", touting their electrician credentials or whatever. To my eyes, you're an engineer, and have at least a bachelors level of understanding in electrical engineering. You also analyze the problem pretty well, so why would anyone think that you were some tenage hack playing with electricity? You make a pretty good case that the current/duration chart is misleading or wrong, and that voltage and frequency play an important role in the effect on the body. Good job styropyro.

Or the microwaves might cause cancer below the skin. And if you have electricity in your body it electrolyzes bodily fluids. Just because it doesn't have a short term damage, it might accumulates over the decades.

Well said! Exactly the way I have always thought of it. It's the combination. Also true that many hobbyists get injured or killed from the HV microwave transformers. Many don't even realize a GFCI does not protect with these since the HV output is isolated from the Ground fault sensing circuit.

@ThriftyToolShed
@ThriftyToolShed Місяць тому
@@citricdemon In the case of the microwave HV transformers they have connected them to use for Lichtenberg burning (also known as fractal burning or wood fracking). They connect the transformer primary GFCI protected 120V and use the HV side to arc into wet or damp wood. The transformer is in its very nature isolating since the windings are not physically connected, but magnetically coupled. The GFCI cannot protect in this manner. It picks up the imbalance of current between hot and neutral in the circuit and cannot sense if ground current is flowing on the secondary of the isolated HV output. Hope I explained that ok...

@@maxwellsimon4538 You didn’t read my actual response for its content. I never said once he is smarter than my peers. Frankly, I can tell you wouldn’t understand the difference between the qualifications I have to actually apply highly-specific scientific principles in a highly-specific field of study to solve novel engineering problems versus doing something generalized in an entertainment video like this if it hit you in the face. Nikola Tesla was playing with high voltages far before your grandfather was weaned off breastmilk. Just because I learned something from the video, it doesn’t mean my formal education is useless. The first thing actual engineers learn about being engineers is they must stay humble and continue learning for life. I was too busy learning how to do Fourier & Laplace transforms by hand to learn shit like this in school, as were my peers. We were never taught this in the engineering curriculum, at a Top 20 school in the nation (ergo the world), because it’s unnecessary knowledge for my career path. The other commenter told me my school sucks. It unequivocally does not, and if you think an engineering school sucks because they don’t let engineering students play with insane voltage supplies and screw around with deadly amperages, you know absolutely nothing about the field. I responded to his comment the way I did because of his tone, and didn’t flaunt my degree so much as he insulted it. Let me spell it out for you like you’re 12: I’m a computer engineer- I help design, simulate, and test infrared sensors nanometers in size (essentially micronized thermocouples) that are fabbed on multimillion dollar Lithography machines in the same building as my office. The dude that made this video cannot do that, is not qualified to do that, and has access to zero enabling equipment or even knowledge in IC fabrication or Electrical Engineering to do that. Working on research and practical application of this as “self study” (lol) would cost tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars given the facilities necessary. The EBL machine we use alone is millions and using it generally requires a masters or higher in the field. Engineering like this is way different than watching a UKposts video. I do NOT work with large currents or voltages. Never have, and never will. Like I said, this knowledge was never valued in my field of study. I never said there isn’t value to practical experience, but you seem to be trying to say practical experience and self-verified study = becoming an engineer. If that was the case, the world would be pretty screwed in a multitude of ways. I never said there wasn’t value in this stuff, because there is. It’s just useless in the area I work in, which is highly specialized. I said he knows more about the content in this specific video than me, not that he is smarter than my peers or I in general. No need to project or conflate the two things as you did in your mindless comment. The fact you think knowing more about a specific boundary case of electricity is the same thing as being smarter in general than a bunch of engineers at the things they do for a living tells me you’re just an uneducated know-it-all that doesn’t understand the field. Good luck getting qualified as a Professional Engineer without a degree…. Specifically, good luck getting hired in an engineering position without such a degree. Your practical experience doesn’t matter in industry without the degree. This field of study doesn’t work like that. He has more experience with ridiculous boundary cases of high voltage and current than I do, so that makes my degree worthless, means I am a shitty engineer, and I’m dumber than him? Alright then pal. I will not reply to a mindless retort from you unless you read everything I’ve wrote back to you and you pinch together your last two brain cells to intelligently respond to the points I’ve made.

Meanwhile, the other guy did, potentially multiple times, thus at least lending credence to his claims. Theory only becomes valid after experimentation renders proof. Not before. These snobby academics are nothing but theorists mindlessly regurgitating some cherry-picked factoid they likely heard mindlessly regurgitated by someone else claiming to have credentials (known as "appeal to authority") but equally few actual experimental proofs of their own, creating a cycle of pretension. And, what's worse, they're often so wrapped up in their ego, they will simply refuse to accept any proof given, regardless of how many times it can be repeated, simply because it doesn't line up with their perceived notions of understanding on the subject, on paper alone. You can show it to them - rub the proof in their faces even - and yet they'll stubbornly refuse to even consider it, let alone accept it. There's simply far too much ego infecting the science.

@The Roober Certainly! I went to a trade school. I'm very fortunate that the company I worked for at the time paid for it, so long as I worked for them full time, and my grades stayed at A+ I could be remembering that wrong, but I'm certain it was A+ grades. It took four years of an apprenticeship while working, so at minimum 1,000 documented hours of electrical work to get my Journeyman license. After that, I needed at least one year of working as a Journeyman to be able to take the Masters test to become eligible for a Master electrician license. Once I had finished all of that, my State's Department of Regulatory Agencies (Division of Professions and Occupations) reviewed everything and approved my license, granting me the title of Master Electrician. In the US, it varies state by state, but it's generally correct that someone must have at least 1,000 hours of work in one trade, then approval from a board of directors to be certified as a Master of their trade. I hope that helps explain the process!

With nowhere else to go, yoru body absorbs all the energy and it causes a lot of complications.

Hey there, I really liked the beginning of your video when you said "people said you're wrong"... I haven't watched the original yet.... Anyway, I'm an electrician and get asked this question often, and generally answer with "It's both and other factors such as time and conductivity" or i just say "Yes" (which tends to piss people off) ... Time is a major factor.... this is why, as a sparky if I work on live wiring/switchboards or whatever, I always put my body in a stance that if I get zapped I with fall away from the conductor (live parts), so I will only get zapped for a very short time.... I'm in australia so I mainly work on 240v or 415v... However, I very very rarely work on DC voltages over 50V. Sorry for the rant, but I will like and subscribe right now.

True! He's really deep into the matter and cares well what he's doing and saying. While a lot of other so called experts are just repaeting nonsense they have read or heard somewhere. One example on how horribly wrong these things can go is this here: some time ago I've read an doctoral thesis of a so called "master of science" about how the old charge and energy limits of 50 µC and 350 mJ are bull shit as this is not realistic and would limit the amount of energy electrostatic machines and devices can hold to way too low valuesto be effective. It is true that IEC 60479-2 states that the low risk of ventricular fibrillation for a healthy adult starts at around 3-5 mC (c1 line). But this just a roof limit for the *immediate risk of death* and not a green card to all kinds of stupidities one can do with electricity below these limits. Also energy will increase with the same charge being delivered at higher and higher voltages causing a unique danger on its own with all its effects on it own. As I've done quite a few experiments with electric pulses from various devices on my own body I can tell pretty much which kind of signal creates what kind of effects. I pointed out to the person in question that the electrical charge as a measure is right for stimulus strength from short pulses but that there are a few problems with the precise values given for *health danger*. Health danger is not only limited to *death from electrocution*. Even a strong muscle cramp causing damage to nerves and muscle tissue would be enough to set a limit way below 5 mC. In my experience one should never go over 10 -15 µC, if possible, as this gives you already a strong shock you won't repeat and gives you some pain in the ass for several hours in your arm. Also one has to consider the worst case scenario. Just throwing funny numbers and concepts all around the space withoput knwoing what they mean in a specific context means nothing. I am talking about large surface contact areas and shocks being strong enough to cause some kind of significant harm to health. Also one has to look at energy seperately for thermal, physical and chemical damage to the cells. Also it is about situations where one can expose themselves safely to voltages and body currents without the need to switch of the voltage. So if the stuff is too strong just take other measures in order to work without any contact to dangerous voltage. Also they have set the value for long term contact voltage to E < 50 V for low voltage which is not hazardous. This contrats other norms. But you don't need norms to know that you don't want to shock yourself with only 30 V (AC). Now I wrote a lot about this and I could write een more but what is important is that always be sceptical about what others tell you, even your own teachers and masters and try to educate yourself as best as possible.

My answer before watching: The current passing through your body is what kills you, but you need a certain amount of voltage in order for the electricity to actually get past the surface resistance of your skin. Location on your body also matters, the most lethal places to be shocked would be the heart or the brain, but if you are in the circuit for long enough you can also die due to internal burns. Usually, when someone gets shocked and killed they don’t actually get electrocuted, but rather they fall off a ladder or other surface after flinching and die from the fall. But it doesn’t take much for the electricity to force your hands to clench and hold onto the wire and you won’t be able to let go, and if that happens you are toast. Even still, I know a guy who got grabbed by 277 volts between each hand, and he survived after being shocked for like 2 minutes. His arms got burned but he came back to work not long after that. It seems electricity can’t kill you if God has decided that it’s not your time to die 😅

Fun fact about the Osha 50v regulation: in my recent electrical safety cert training the instructor talked about how at the time those regulations were established the telephone companies had a substantial lobby, and they happened to operate their lines at 48 volts, so yeah the real reason the limit is set at 50v is bc the telephone companies didn't want to be regulated and they could pay enough to strongarm the govt lol. Edit: should probably mention the instructor my company uses actually sits on my state's board of electrical examiners.

Many old houses that used to have land lines have copper lines that still carry those 48 volts, even in a power outage. I'm a curious electrician and I've found about 90% of the homes that have the solid copper red, green, yellow and black (in my sector) have power. Charge your phones, have lights and more in a blackout. Also it used to be telephone company, not companies. Bell ran the world and invented everything. You know who else sits on the board of the NEC? CEO's of major electrical parts companies, Legrand, Hubbel, Leviton and others. Why do you think GFCI's are required everywhere and cost $35...

I mean this is true, but bear in mind engineers certainly didn’t choose 48V by accident. I’m sure much effort was made to find a compromise voltage that minimized transmission losses while maintaining an acceptable safety margin. No way 48V was chosen by accident!

@Corey Moullas while I'm sure there were technical reasons for the 48v standard I would wager a month salary that safety was bottom of the list, if it even made the page! You gotta remember this was established at a time when ppl were smoking cigarettes with asbestos filters for Christ's sake!

@@BariumCobaltNitrog3n You can't get very much current out of the phone line though. It's current limited to ~30mA. You can put a bare LED across a phone line with no current limiting resistor, and the LED lights about normal (I'm talking like an indicator LED, not a high brightness lighting LED). I discovered that as a kid playing with LEDs and phone lines. So yes, you get "free power" from the phone company if you still have a landline that runs to your house, but the amount of power you can actually get from it is minuscule. It certainly will NOT charge a phone during a power outage. Now as an adult (and engineer), I'd actually measure the voltage and current with an LED across the phone line, if I had a phone line. Only fiber runs to my house :(

Good video. You put a LOT of work into this one. I get the "it's the current that kills" oversimplification a lot. It is, but it's also the voltage that pushes the current. The same people usually say things like "current takes the path of least resistance". Nope. It takes ALL paths of resistance. It's kinda unfortunate that our classic 50/60Hz supplies are just perfect for causing sustained muscle contraction and oodles of pain.

Is it unfortunate that 50/60hz stuff does what it does to us or is it inherently related to the fact that those frequencies were chosen to align with our eyes’ “framerate” or threshold to recognize movement? I have absolutely no qualifications but my intuition tells me it’s not much of a coincidence as nerves are heavily involved in both perspectives

This is the best video about these misconsceptions I have seen so far. First I mainly expected the basic description I give when someone asks me (people do because I am an electrical engineer). To keep it short I tell them "you need current running through you for a long enough time interval to kill you, to get that you need enough voltage to overcome the resistance of your body and it is different for DC and AC and different for different AC frequencies so don't touch anything". I like that you went further and you quantified things too. The charts you show for current and duration and for perception by nerves were a ton of information by themselves and the measurements on the static shock and the tesla coil were great too. It never actually occured to me that above certain frequency you stop feeling, your nerves running your heard do not react either and the danger is basically is down to heating tissues by the passing current. But seeing it now it makes perfect sense. And you made a bunch of condescending people look all manner of stupid which is always fun 🙂. Thank you for the great video.

Remember the basic physics law that higher frequencies have more trouble travelling further because they dissipate energy faster. Ohm's law might not mean shit for the human body, but still if you replace the resistance in the equation with the complex impedance you'll see that you get a much lower current out of a given voltage at higher frequencies. So it makes sense that higher frequency currents are less dangerous.

I can feel shocks from 3.5v pulsed DC. I have a single 18650 from an old laptop. Connected to the primary of a MOT. I made my own switch using metal spoons. When I manually pulse the primary (holding the spoons in one hand and playing them on my leg), I get decent sparks and I get shocked by the spoons. I am lighting a fluorescent on the secondary and am not touching it. So i guess its the indirect voltage spike of back emf.
