Care to cite numerical values for what you consider to be a relatively small voltage that could result in a fatality?
How about you take a 1F capacitor, charge it up to different levels of voltage, and touch the leads. Then repeat that process. Start at 5V and increment up by 5V with every test run. If you want the voltage to be lower, then scrape off the top layer of your skin (the top layer is where most of the resistance in the human body is), and wet your hands in salt water.
Let us know when you find the lethal voltage. To keep this a bit more scientific, please calculate the amount of energy you are dissipating through your body with the following formula:
You can't be a power engineer. You simply cannot if you are not understanding this. Actually, that's not true, I've met many so called electrical engineers that don't really understand electricity/power/current/potential/etc. well, and could still do their job well. Sometimes you don't need a deep understanding if what you're working on is limited in scope, and doesn't require a lot of innovative thinking.
Do you really have a professional engineering license?
