That's just a new game plus for electricity
AC + high voltage must be nightmare mode
I'm not an electrician enough to say, but if I remember it right, AC + high voltage is what Tesla generators use to generate all that fancy air zaps. That's more high frequency than the consumer grade AC, and high frequency makes it somewhat safe for living things because electricity doesn't flow deep into the body in that case.
Yep! Once you start getting into waves & fields all bets are off. High frequency electromagnetic radiation gets more and more wild if you back it up with enough power
Could be as safe as a radio transmission or as deadly as a submarine’s sonar pulse. All depends on the frequency and the power behind it (and where you direct it)
TIL sonar is deadly, huh.
yeah what's this about?
