If you are talking about 12 volts dc, then NO, there is not enough voltage to shock you. Actually, it would take about 40 or more volts to start to get a shock. Of course, standing in water would make the voltages less. Even standing in water, 12 volts is not enough to shock you.


How many volts does it take to arc 1 inch in air between electrodes?

This varies a lot with the conditions and can be between 10,000V to 30,000V per inch of air gap: Are the electrodes pointed? If yes, then on the low end of the range. The voltage increases with air pressure. Humidity and particulate matter also affect the voltage required to strike an arc.
