C-H, I'll dig them out, I have them somewhere for the last 12 months.

In actual killed I think it may be Sweden or Finland with the absolute figue lowest number of deaths, however you need to take into account the population of a state when calculating such figures in any subject.

From memory, in the previous 12 months there are 44 cases of deaths in England and Wales being attributed to electric shock, only two of these were professional electricians, over 70% were DIY bodgers, the remainder Kids retrieving balls from substations etc and I think 4 were idiots trying to abstract electricity from overhead lines without paying for it..!!

As I said, I will hunt out the figures and post them.
