All I know is that a jolt with 115v, 400Hz aircraft power has a lot more hurt to it that standard 60Hz AC.

I found that out in the Air Force when I went to disconnect a mobile generator plug (Dash-60 for you military folks) from a particularily hostile A-10 aircraft. The next thing I knew I was on the ground at the next plane over, about 50 feet away!!

This happened because one leg of the three-phase contactor was defective and welded closed. and of course it happened to be the outermost pin on the connector!

Luckily it was monsoon season, I was sweating and soaking wet. The current entered my left palm and exited my right heel.

Ahhh, the fun! [Linked Image]

Stupid should be painful.
