Robert, The best I can do is point you in the direction of IEC 479-1 which is by now IEC 600479. The title is "Effects of current passing through the human body". The electrical model for the human body is derived from this information. There is a good description of this in Annex A of ANSI/ISA S82.01-1994 which is harmonized, more or less identical to, UL 3111.
