In the hands of a person who is not competent, each is as dangerous as the other!

Do two things.

First touch an AC voltage source and feel its shock then DC and tell us which one is dangerous.

DC is more dangerous. You are more dead from DC than the death you experience with AC.

Hi Guest,

I'd prefer that everyone has a question to check whether the question(s) he/she has is figured out or not before posing it in the forum…. This way we can save time & effort….. My friend your question had been discussed before over here: http://cr4.globalspec.com/thread/53576/Which-is-More-Dangerous-AC-or-DC

Hope this helps.......
