The truth about GFCI's (a.k.a. RCD's, ALCI's, LCDI's, LCCB's, RCBO's, etc.)

    I think you mean mA by microA .
    Very interesting. Video.
    I was in confusing about 5mA in USA and. 30 mA for RCD .thank you for sharing

    Thanks for the video! Looking forward to the next one!

    The solution is clear: I must become a bodybuilder to increase lean body mass for a higher let go threshold

    Your charts show uA (micro-amps) while your audio discusses mA (milli-amps). That's a factor of 1000. Charts at 7:45 minute mark should be updated to avoid confusion; otherwise, this is an informative video.

      Thanks! Yep, my mistake, other folks have pointed this out too.

    Although a small chlid probably cant let go a 5mA,the GFCI will trip in a few milliseconds,long before he/she would get injured.In Eruope we use 30mA RCD,but even that only causes smaller injuries.being painful for a few seconds.

    Why did you write uA?That means microamps not milliamps. Also,your resistance will only decrease to 1000 Ohms,if your skin fails.With dry skin,you can have over 100 kiloohm of resistance.In fact,i know a few electricians who have thick and dry sking and they only get a tingle from 230V and a small zap from 400V.

      That's an honest mistake - I did say "milliamps", but wrote a "Mu" for "micro". Others pointed that out too, and I owned up to it :)
      I also did mention that it's under "certain conditions". Sure, there are people whose skin in callous and dry enough not to be that conductive, but I'll take their word for it ;)

    why on earth are 30ma gfic are common here?wtf?
