KevinR Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 10 hours ago, JohnD said: Interesting, if anecdotal, accounts of the conductive properties of a urine stream. The critical factor is, from how far away? Surface tension tends to break up a continuous stream of liquid, and it turns into separate droplets between the, er, origin, and ground level, so no conduction to frazzle your jazzle. But if, say, the electricity were at arms length, the result would be more than exciting. John Many years ago during a visit to Arborfield Garrison REME training school, we were shown around the Medical Equipment wing, where there were photographs on the walls of the results of accidents involving various items of military equipment - and there were some pretty gory photos in the collection. One particular picture was of the frazzled remains of a soldier's manhood, the result of him urinating on an 11KV generator cable that had damaged insulation.

dougbgt6 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Kevin, Yes, electricity, all over in a flash! But, flesh eating fish, that's a different ball game. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteH Posted March 4, 2018 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 Hi To digress, recently purchased one of these. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00O1Q2HOQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Handy tool especially the ability to read very small currents in cables using the clamp. In both DC and AC modes. used it to track a rogue battery loss issue. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anglefire Posted March 4, 2018 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 I have something very similar if not the same. Good bit of kit. Not for our cars, but there are fuse probes that make it easy to check the current through the circuit. In fact modern fuses have small holes in each blade so you can measure the voltage and work out the current via ohms law as they have a known resistance depending on their rating.
