From ESD Association ESD Handbook ESD TR20.20 section 5.3.2.1:
"When people are charged with static electricity, they can release stored energy to conductive objects such as doorknobs and electronic circuits. This transfer of energy is called an electrostatic discharge. Sometimes the electrostatic discharge causes visible sparks, but more often, it is both unseen and unfelt. Electrostatic discharges can damage ESD sensitive components used in modern electronics.
Static electricity is a natural phenomenon that occurs in all climates and at all levels of relative humidity year round. Most people cannot feel an electrostatic discharge unless the static voltage is greater than 2000 volts. However, some electronic circuitry can be damaged by ESD that is less than 2000 volts. The damage can be done without people having any sensation of the ESD event.
When a wrist strap is worn properly and connected to ground, the person wearing it will stay near ground potential."
What else can I help you with?
What is the minimum DC that can be felt?

What is a myth regarding electro static discharge?
if you can't feel ESD, the surge is not sufficient to harm components.
What ESD voltage level can you see?
It takes a potential of about 20,000 volts to see of feel. The human body can accumulate a potential of about 25,000 volts or more.
A Farmer claims the the high-voltage transmission lines running parallel to his fence induces dangerously high voltages on the fence Is this within the realm of possibility?
Yes, this is in the realm of possibility and in fact happens. It will not be a dangerously high voltage induced into the fence but you will be able to feel it. Proper grounding of the fence will eliminate the condition.
I charged a homemade capacitor with a 9v you touched your tongue to the capacitor and you got no charge?
In order to feel 9V on your tongue, you need enough current, for enough time, for your brain to recognize the current.Homemade capacitors tend to be rather low in capacitance. The resistance of your tongue might then discharge the capacitor rather quickly, and you might not notice the voltage before it goes to zero. Try this with a large capacitor, such as a few hundred microfarads and see what happens. Please do not charge the capacitor to more than 9V - you do not want to hurt yourself!
What is the minimum level of electrostatic discharge that a person can normally feel?
A person can typically feel an electrostatic discharge when it reaches around 3,000 volts. This sensation is often described as a small shock or static electricity zap.

What is an example of electrostatic discharge?
An example of electrostatic discharge is the shock you sometimes feel when you touch a metal object after walking on carpet in a dry environment. This occurs when the excess static electricity built up on your body is discharged to the metal conductor.
What is the minimum level of electrostatic discharge that a person can normally feel in computer?
3000 Volts or more. This comes directly from the A++ Hardware book.

What is the minimum level of elecrostatic discharge that a person can normally feel?
what is the minimum level of elecrostatic discharge that a person can normally feel?

How high does a static discharge have to be for a human to feel it?
A static discharge typically needs to be around 3,000 volts for a human to feel it. The exact voltage threshold can vary depending on factors such as humidity, skin moisture, and individual sensitivity.

What is the minimum electric shock that you acquire from domestic power supply?
There is no such thing as a minimum shock. A shock is caused by a current passing through your body to ground. Depending on where the current flows it will have different effects on your body and what you perceive. You can feel millivolts of voltage depending on how they are applied to your body.
Can you feel menstrual fluid drip out?
Yes, you can feel menstrual flow leaving your body. It's just the same as with discharge, you can feel the fluid leaving your body - menstrual flow is often heavier and warmer than discharge.
What does a sinus infection feel like?
You feel puffy on the inside of your face, your face is tender, and there is discharge - not fun.
