If someone is being electrified, immediately turn off the source of electricity if it is safe to do so. Do not touch the person directly, as you could also become a victim. Instead, use a non-conductive object, like a wooden stick, to push them away from the electrical source. Once the person is free from the current, call emergency services for medical assistance.

Was Kimberley the first city to be electrified?

No, Kimberley was not the first city to be electrified. That distinction is generally attributed to the city of Godalming in England, which became the first to have a public electricity supply in 1881. Kimberley, located in South Africa, was one of the early cities to receive electric power, but it came later than Godalming.

Does your body allow electricity to flow through it?

Yes of course, we have salts, minerals etc.... so they do The body is not a great conductor, but it can conduct electricity and that is why you can feel a shock through static electricity or a killing shock such as an electric chair. Conductance will vary from person to person and will change depending on conditions such as sweat, being wet from a shower and so forth.


What to do after being electricuted?

If you or someone else has been electrocuted, immediately call emergency services for medical assistance, even if the symptoms seem mild. Ensure the area is safe before approaching the victim to avoid further electrical hazards. If the person is unconscious or not breathing, begin CPR and use an automated external defibrillator (AED) if available. Monitor for any signs of shock or burns and provide first aid if trained, but do not move the person unless they're in immediate danger.
