Answer Posted / praveen v
If going by your analogy Srikanthreddy - 50 Hz being less
than 1000 Hz is more dangerous, then 0 hz being even lesser
than 1000 Hz must be more dangerous.
It is not simply frequency or holding current that matters.
The voltage matters as well.
It all depends on the situations & voltages. Removing all
that, if simply going by the fact that DC causes muscular
contractions & holds you continuously whereas AC holds for a
few moments & then throws you - DC should be considered more
dangerous, even though it is not a wholesome answer.
They are both dangerous.
