But 220v still packs a punch that'll straighten your hair even at comparatively low amperage.
Even after I fixed the stove element I still used a wooden spoon to stir the pasta after that.  |
What voltage/amps are residential AC units the part that sits outside? My fan motor broke on mine once and I decided to fix it myself. I killed the breakers but forgot the power disconnect which is outside. When I cut the wire, I stated getting shocked to hell and back to the point I don't think I could have let go.
The only way I was able to let go, was I happened to be standing a bit off balance so I leaned away and was able to break connection. I dunno how much voltage or amps that was, but I wasn't able to physically let go of my wire cutters to break the circuit.
Now to this day, anytime I fuck with electrical shit, I stand so I can put myself off balance in case that shit happens again.
