Truly, it is Power that kills you. Power is the product of voltage AND current.
Knowing that it takes some significant voltage to drive any current through a person, and that it takes more volts to drive more current through the same load (a person's body), we can roughly judge the effect of the electrical shock based on the current:
Milliamps are dangerous
Less than 1/2 milliamp, no sensation
1/2 to 2 milliamps, threshold of perception
2 to 10 milliamps, muscular contraction
5 to 25 milliamps, painful shock (may not be able to let go)
Over 25 milliamps, could be violent muscular contraction
50 to 100 milliamps, ventricular fibrillation
over 100 paralysis of breathing.
Amps are more likely to kill you than volts. Voltage determines how far electricity can travel, while amperage (amps) determines the strength of the electrical current. High amperage can disrupt the body's natural electrical signals, leading to tissue damage and potentially death.
Ampers are the ones that kill. But if there is too little voltage the electricity will not get through your body. On the other hand if theres 100000volts. and like 0.0000001 amps. You will also die because your heart cant take the shock.

How many volts it takes to cause a current of 1.95 amps to exist in a 200 watt lamp?
The formula to calculate the relationship between amps, volts and watts is Volts X Amps = Watts or Volts = Watts / Amps or Amps = Watts / Volts therefore; 200 Watts divided by 1.95 Amps is 102.5641 Volts.
What does 1500 watts equal in amps at 120 volts?
To convert watts to amps at 120 volts, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For 1500 watts at 120 volts, the calculation would be: 1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 amps.
200 watts to amps 12v?
To convert watts to amps, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, to convert 200 watts at 12 volts to amps, it would be: 200 watts / 12 volts = 16.67 amps. So, 200 watts at 12 volts is approximately 16.67 amps.
Does 50 amps rated at 240 volts equal 100 amps rated at 120 volts?
When you multiply amps x volts the product is watts. Using this formula W = Amps x Volts should give you your answer.
How many amps can handle in 12 volts a 600 volts 15 amps rated terminal bar?
The terminal strip's rating is 15 amps at 600 volts. It does not matter what the voltage is up to 600 volts, the maximum amperage allowed on the strip is 15 amps. It could be 15 amps at 12 volts or 15 amps at 600 volts or any voltage in between.
Can 2 amps at 5 volts kill you?
Yes.
How many volts does it take to kill a human?
it doesn't matter how many volts pass through your body, its the amps as little as 0.1 amps can kill a human
Is 1700 volts enough to kill someone?
Possibly, but it depends on the amperage available. Even 110 volts can kill with enough amps.
380volt 266KW how many amps?
volts = watts divided by amps amps = watts divided by volts watts = amps times volts so 266,000 watts divided by 380 volts = 700 amps and I might also point out that whatever it is you are talking about is very dangerous and can kill you in less than a heartbeat. I'd be sure to talk with an electrician if I were you if you plan on going anywhere near that.

If voltage is 12 volts and ohms is 0.5 how many amps in circuit?
Ohm's law: Volts = Amps * Ohms, or Amps = Volts / Ohms 12 volts / 0.5 ohms = 24 amps
What does 1500 watts equal in amps at 120 volts?
To convert watts to amps at 120 volts, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For 1500 watts at 120 volts, the calculation would be: 1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 amps.
4 volts is a many watts?
4 volts and how many amps? Watts = amps x volts. It depends on the amount of current (in Amps) flowing at 4 Volts... See Ohms Law: Watts = Volts x Amps If you have 2 Amps flowing at 4 Volts you are dissipating/consuming 8 Watts. If you have 10 Amps flowing at 4 Volts you are dissipating/consuming 40 Watts.
Using 120 volts at 12 amps is the same power as what amps at 220 volts?
6 amps.
How many amps at 120 volts equals 16 amps at 12 volts?
160 amps at 12v.
How many amps at 12 volts equals 16 amps at 120 volts?
160 amps at 12v.
200 watts to amps 12v?
To convert watts to amps, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, to convert 200 watts at 12 volts to amps, it would be: 200 watts / 12 volts = 16.67 amps. So, 200 watts at 12 volts is approximately 16.67 amps.
