Because water is a conductor, and water dripping from your hands may drip down to an energized circuit, and effectively create a trail from that circuit to your hands, causing you to get electrocuted.
to prevent the cooker or chef from burning his or hers hands.
wet hands offer less resistance than dry hands. therefore there's more chance you'll get electrocuted!
Water can conduct electricity ( if it is an electrolyte, as most tap water is) so you shouldn't touch electrical appliances with wet hands, or put them near water in case the water completes a circuit from the appliance, resulting in a live circuit. if you touch a live circuit that could result in electrocution.
Wires and components can still hold a charge. Or, if defective, a component may give an electrical shock. Therefore, it is always best to unplug the appliance first and make sure your hands are dry.
Water is a good conductor of electricity. Should your hands be wet while working with a live electric circuit, the odds are increased that you will accidentally complete a connection and give yourself an electric shock.

why shock occurs when electrical appliances are touched with wounded hands
Water is a good conductor of electricity. A person with wet hands touching electrical appliances get a shock.So it is dangerous to touch an electric appliance with wet hands.
maybe you will get electrocuted?

because the water from your hands conduct the electricity and will probably electrocute you

Electrical installations should be inspected, tested and maintained regularly to ensure safety.Don't try to repair or install electrical wirings or appliances yourself unless you are a registered electrical worker.Don't use adaptors, plugs or extension units that do not comply with regulations.Avoid poor contacts when using plugs, adaptors or extension units and watch out for signs of overheating.Don't overload adaptors and socket outlets.Don't touch electrical appliances, sockets or switches with wet hands.Socket outlets installed inside bathrooms must comply with Electricity (Wiring) Regulations.Fixed electrical appliances should be installed by registered electrical contractor. Don't use electrical appliance with an exposed conductive part which is not earthed.Don't use defective appliances.Don't place the flexible cord of electrical appliances close to any hot object.Allow sufficient space for ventilation to prevent electrical appliances from overheating.Try to switch off electrical appliances especially those high current demand ones before leaving your premises.Unplug appliances if they will be idle for a certain period of time.If appliances operate abnormally or if there are signs of overheating, stop using, switch off power and arrange for inspection and repairs by qualified persons.
You should not leave any wire naked. You should not use low-quality and damaged wires. Don't touch any wire or socket board with wet hands/body. Don't use electrical appliances, such as hair dryers, radios, CD players, etc., near the tub or shower while bathing. Get them serviced on yearly basis. When the electric current is non-consistent,you should switch them off as they can burn/spread gases etc into the atmosphere.
You wash your hands before you eat and handle food don't you? You should wash your hands before and after you touch any living creature
You should wash your hands before and after you handle mice. They do carry many diseases.
