I have always been under the impression that the "Live" conductor was the most dangerous conductor.
The Live carries 120V (US) 240V (UK) and the Neutral carries 0V, but yet it is still possible to get an electric shock from a Neutral
Why is this possible?
Is it because it is Alternating Current and the direction of the current changes?
If so, would it be fair to say that in an DC circuit, it won't be possible to get shock from a Negative conductor?
Thanks in advance
