2. Electric shockElectric shock occurs upon contact of a (human) body with any source of electricity that causes a sufficient current through the skin, muscles, or hair. Typically, the expression is used to denote an unexpected and unwanted exposure to electricity, hence the effects are considered undesirable. The minimum current a human can feel depends on the current type and frequency. A person can feel at least 1 mA of AC at 60 Hz, while at least 5 mA for DC.
