If it can be demonstrated to the scientific community/press/public at large that "the RCD will trip or nary a tingle will be felt", then CBE's, MBE's, Knighthoods or perhaps a Nobel prize will be sure to follow!


This is surely the biggest step forward in Electrical safety since the invention of fuse wire!


In these bleak times the British public needs to hear good news like this.

    Document IEC 60479-1 seems only interested in voltages ranging from 25v - 200v.

    It would appear therefore that in order to produce that graph, the authors have been increasing the 'touch' voltage in order to increase the current flow through the human body.

    Therefore that graph is a misrepresentation!

    It is also misleading in the extreme and dangerous to the point of being potentially lethal for the purposes of "Requirements for Electrical installations".
