Best Answer

At levels of current flow exceeding 1/10 of an amp or 100 milliamps, the heart stops. This is called fibrillation. A person may survive an electrocution if his or her heart can be started again. This is why CPR is such an important skill in the electrical industry

It again depends on the conditions:

Humidity % in atmosphere.

Whether the person himself is wet or not.

However for a person:

10mA is "let go" current which provides just a minor sensation in nerves.

The normal acceptable current is 30mA which generally most of RCCB are rated for..

&

At 50mA there are more chances of Heart Failure.
