why electric shock due to dc is dangerous than that of ac
Answer Posted / anonymous
Hey Buddy,
Low frequency (50 - 60 Hz) AC currents can be more dangerous
than similar levels of DC current since the alternating
fluctuations can cause the heart to lose coordination,
inducing ventricular fibrillation, which then rapidly leads
to death. High voltage DC power can be more dangerous than
AC, however, since it tends to cause muscles to lock in
position, stopping the victim from releasing the energised
conductor once grasped.
