why electric shock due to dc is dangerous than that of ac

Answer Posted / ashish_dce

as we know that the value shown by any meter of ac is
actually it Rms value.the peak value of given ac is 1.414
time of this value,means if we have same valued ac n dc we
hav to withstand 41% more voltage if we r under shock.
