1. Frequency Effect:
¾ Effect of frequency Humans are very vulnerable to the
effects of electric current at frequencies of 50 Hz or 60
Hz. Currents of approximately 0.1 A can be lethal.
¾ Research indicates that the human body can tolerate a
slightly higher 25Hz current and approximately five
times higher direct current.

¾ In the 9–25 mA range, currents may be painful and can make it impossible to
release energized objects grasped by the hand. For still higher currents
muscular contractions could make breathing difficult. These effects are not
permanent and disappear when the current is interrupted, unless the contraction
is very severe and breathing is stopped for minutes rather than seconds.

Where:
IB : is the rms magnitude of the current through the body in A
Ts : is the duration of the current exposure in s
SB: is the empirical constant related to the electric shock energy
tolerated by a certain percent of a given population.
