Greetings !New to the forums.
Here expanding my concept of what AC Electricity is
My question (correct me if wrong)..
If AC power alternates between +,- at a rate of 60Hertz/second and negative is used as -earth- at the AC generator
If the hot wire touches the ground would happen? (I think Nothing)
Cause by the principle of my understanding if I touch a live "Hot" ac wire and I am standing still to the ground current from the "hot" wire will travel through me to reach the potencial difference cause there is no voltage in ground .
But since the current is actually passing through my body I will get electrocuted.
Question is if this happens would the voltage go back to neutral?
