Body Reaction to Alternating Current
Amount of Current | Effect on Body |
1 mA or less | No sensation (not felt). |
More than 5 mA | Painful shock. |
More than 10 mA | Muscle contractions; could cause “freezing” to the electrical circuit for some people. |
More than 15 mA | Muscle contractions; could cause “freezing” to the electrical circuit for most people. |
More than 30 mA | Breathing is difficult; and could cause unconsciousness. |
50 to 100 mA | Ventricular fibrillation of the heart is possible. |
100 to 200 mA | Ventricular fibrillation of the heart is certain. |
Over 200 mA | Severe burns and muscular contractions; the heart is more apt to stop beating than to fibrillate. |
1 ampere and above | Permanent damage to body tissues. |
