hi all,
Quick question I hope you can help me with, it’s to do with VIR triangle, and in this case how many amps pass through the circuit.. so..
If a human touches a circuit with 100,000 ohms resistance of the skin, and the voltage is 240 volts, does this mean the individual gets hit with 0.0024 amps, OR does it mean 0.0024 amps is the maximum the persons skin can experience? Could the circuit essentially have less than 0.0024 amps flowing through it if nothing was pulling power on the circuit? Meaning the amount of amps the person experiences can’t be that high if the circuit isn’t producing that many amps anyway?
Hope this makes sense, looking forward to responses and I apologise in advance if my understanding here is flawed.
Thanks!!!
