Mick, Thanx for the reply given on this thread. I am familiar with the 60479 clauses you describe. My overall comment is that 60479 folks primary focus is on preventing VF (not killing people). Much of what you quoted relates to such electric shock situations. Becaus

Ted has proposed something that safety standards committees do not do: EXPERIMENTS to prove or disprove the requirements. But I have done voltage, current, and thermal experiments on students (voluntarily) at the Energy Class 1 levels in my HBSE courses. One of the more interestin
