                        So long as it's only my finger, Sheal.:hate-shocked::heehee: Actually, I still carry the scars on the fingers and palm of my left hand where in Aden I picked up a male/female plug leading to a Teleprinter that needed fixing. I was only wearing shorts and no shoes as the temperature was 105f-115f in the room so when the plug fell apart in my hand I got 240v straight through me to the concrete floor. Being DC current it caused my hand to shut over the plug [whereas AC will open your hand] and my hand started to smoke. Luckily for me for some reason the current was only passing down my left side and I could move my right arm and managed to grab the plug out of my left hand while everyone was looking at me wondering why I was screaming:gaah: It burnt the shape of the plug into my hand and like I say it's still there.............Aaaah, those were the days!!:lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                          Not necessarily. It all depends which muscles it passes through. As AC is typically 50-60Hz, faster than your muscles can react, so if it meets a complimentary pair of muscles in equal measure, you'll just lock up in spasm.

                          This is exactly what happened to me once when replacing a light switch without cutting the mains (because that would have meant my dad's tropical aquarium would have lost power). I told everyone in the room to watch me, and to use a sweeping brush or even kick me clear if it looked like there was a problem. When I locked up, not even able to breath, I could still see people looking over to see if I was still ok. As I was standing up and not moving, I knew they just assumed I was fine. It was only when my legs finally weakened enough for me to collapse that I became able to take a massive gasp for air and have a go at everyone for ignoring me while I was being electrocuted.

                          I finished the job with the mains off.
