| 2 | chdd | WHICH ONE IS DANGEROUS? AC OR DC????????? DC is more dangerous than AC because AC change its direction many time in a sec. while DC does not. In AC man got slight shock but secure while in DC man die at once when touch it. |

| 3 | htc2498 | WHICH ONE IS DANGEROUS? AC OR DC????????? It depends upon the frequency of the AC. By Murphy's Law the mains frequency is the worst one for muscle contraction. You touch the wire and your fingers stay clutched. |

| 5 | spacebac | WHICH ONE IS DANGEROUS? AC OR DC????????? puneet bansal, This argument has been raging since the days when Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse were competing for lighting contracts. If you search the web, you can find statements either way. However, most of the claims are unsubstantiated opinion. The two most authoritative articles that I have found can be found at the following sites: . http://www.pfeiffereng.com/Principals of Electrical Grounding.pdf http://pchem.scs.uiuc.edu/pchemlab/electric.htm . The first article has a table showing the following levels: . Perception . "Cant let go" . Atrial fibrillation Take a look. The conclusion of both articles is that AC is more dangerous.

| 10 | ct731 | WHICH ONE IS DANGEROUS? AC OR DC????????? If you increase frequency to high values, the risk os shock comes down due to skin effect. With increasing frequency current tends to flow through the surface. This can happen in KHz range. This property is used in shows where a man holds the ends of a tube light and the tube glows. |
