im puzzled and would like theory, dont want to do practical :)
if im in a metal bath ,which is earthed, full of water, and i drop an electrical appliance into the water (not onto me), would i be electrocuted, or would the electricitcy immeditely go to earth leaving me unscathed, as i would assume there would be no potential difference between me and the water . unless the electricity had to go through me to get to the water.
i know that if touched a live wire and it eathed through me i would be electrocuted due to potential diff,
alternatively if i stand on a 10,000 volt live wire which lies in a muddly puddle , would i be ok as surely the electricity would again flow to the earth mass and not through me,
promise im not planning on trying any on SWMBO.
honest
