If you touch a power line with one hand, the current goes through your body. If you touch it with two hands, the current goes through your heart. They keep one hand in their pocket to prevent touching the line with both hands.

Why do light industry and heavy industry use different voltage?
Heavy industry and light industry use different voltages because usually the heavy industry has larger and more powerful machines, therefore the voltage needs to be higher. On the other hand, if high voltage is used in Light industry, with smaller less powerful machines, it could be very dangerous with risk of fire and harm or death to workers and staff.
What does inductive load effect on High Voltage transmission line?
the inductive load which is generally use in high voltage transmission line known as transformer. the transformer transform the high voltage to low voltage.
When can high voltages be relatively safe?
When the current is very low; static electricity has a very high voltage but little current. On the other hand very high current won't even penetratrate the skin if the voltage is low. It takes both and AC is worse than DC because it can disrupt nerve impulses that control the heart.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of such high voltage?
voltage is termed as electrical pressure. when high voltage is applied more is the movement of electrons. hence losses will be less. this is one of the major reason for which high voltage transmission is chosen.secondly due to high voltage the current will be less so as the conductor size
How you understand which side of a transformer is high voltage side and low voltage side?
at high voltage side, current is low. hence the size of conductors is reduced or small. At low voltage side, current is high. Hence the size of conductors is large.

How do you change a high pocket to a low pocket?
low pants
Electrical Properties of Transformers why you use it?
Transformers are used to convert electricity from high voltage to low voltage and from low voltage to high voltage.
What is medium and high voltage?
Medium voltage is over 1000 v, high voltage is over 45 kV.
When was High Voltage Software created?
High Voltage Software was created in 1993.
What is High Voltage Software's population?
The population of High Voltage Software is 95.
When was High Voltage Festival created?
High Voltage Festival was created in 2010.
When was High Voltage - song - created?
High Voltage - song - was created in 1975-07.
What does inductive load effect on High Voltage transmission line?
the inductive load which is generally use in high voltage transmission line known as transformer. the transformer transform the high voltage to low voltage.
What causes high and low currents?
In electricity? High voltage ,high currents. Low voltage, low currents.
Why is high voltage a plus?
its because of transformers . they work with pulse
S10 blazer reads high voltage?
The s10 uses an alternator and regulator to produce voltage. A high voltage is most likely caused by a faulty voltage regulator.
