I will highlight that. I have done a few small shocks with different power installs but 1 time I managed a solid across the chest (felt my heart contract) shock.
I was installing a 4 foot replacement fluorescent bulb on an over head light it was hot I was sweating and I was having trouble getting pins in on each side.
I was doing it hot with power to the fixture(
badbadbad) so I reach out a bit and each hand touched each end and I run the power across my chest. My arm pits were sweaty and my hands a bit damp with sweat so nice contact. The power f-ing hurt big time. I felt like someone sneezed my heart inside my chest. Plus my sweating arm pits felt seriously weird .
And we are talking about the power was from this type of device.
https://www.electricalmarketplace.com/productfile/index/view/fileid/173/ since it was one fixture it was about 60-65 watts and I think I was lucky to be able to write a warning about power.
I think most people would think 62 watts dc is a safe level to get shocked with it was not.
thats because of the amps that are supplying that 60-65w florescent tube (its rated load wattage while on)
the wattage doesn't refer to whats going to those actual plugs the tube connects too
the Balast is more likely to be outputting 500v or 600v to start the tube, and a fair bit of amps to do so
