Transformer dey switched off...if not he 4 don roast by now

Leaner! Wetin concerned current flowing through high-tesion wire?

and so? if I can touch burning red charcoal with my bare hands how more wire mtchewww # kidding ;Dand so? if I can touch burning red charcoal with my bare hands how more wire mtchewww # kidding

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.Bro!u can lie oooooo.Devil sef go dey fear u ooo.

That u don't have knowledge of something does not mean u should be accusing another person of lying.

I have done a lesser one myself as demonstration during my undergraduate days to show that electric current can only run through a person that is earthed.

I placed a blanket on a plastic chair, I then stood on the blanket on the plastic chair and touched a live wire. I didn't feel any electric shock despite the current in me. I asked my spectators to use a tester on my body and the tester showed light, even though I didn't feel any electric shock.

What made this happen? It is simply because I was not connected to the earth, a person feels electric shock just becos the current flows through the body to the ground. When the connection to the ground is taken a way and the current is not extremely high to the point of arcing, the person will not feel an electric shock.

Although I have never tried that of the mains homes and shops connects to. But as I mentioned earlier, I have seen an electrician that touched it with his bare hands and there was light, and he was not electrocuted. You can make your independent findings about this, and the come back and apologise to me.

Based on my background I didn't attribute what the electrician did to superstition or funny assertions that he held his breath. It was simply because he was well disconnected from the earth. He was midair resting on a perfect non-conductor.

oooo na dat black tin dem dey use deceive dem? very soon, he wld really b made of black

lol.

If understand the principle of electricity, you will get to know that, you only get shocked when the current that flowed into your body found an outlet via a low potential point.

Ground is low potential, and as such as long as your shoes are properly insulated, you can touch a high tension wire all day and nothing will happen to you. That is the same reason, birds can berch on high tension wires and nothing will happen but if their feets touches the two tension wires, they are gone.

He think say na GEJ still dey rule

Transformer gets current from the high tension which means if you disconnect the transformer the high tension is still very active

Even physics students on nairaland are staring at the pic like Wtf

Bro!U know shit.U want to compare d current running thru high tension wire to d one supplied into d house?Do u know d amount of current ur body can tolerate?Bro!stop lying.

this wan nah high tension

so some people actually believed there was current in that wire..... gullible is too small a word for u.

Would have checked ur signature but was dissapointed by ur comment, helmet will protect someone holding tension wire

And dis sh*t's on front page? B4 working on a HT, the transmission's always called for outage on the feeder in question.

Greyworld:
Current has not flown through those wires for 9 years, 8 months, 3 weeks, 6 days, 21hours....... And sm seconds.

GBAM!! I'm sure the OP is a gentle 'lady' and 'he' can't hurt a fly

donholy28:
current no dey...if not he 4 don roast by now

the topic would have been (Graphic pix of a foolish man who touched tenssion wire with hand in lagos home of bad new) [viewer discretion strongly advised or OYO]

d science here is simple, one can actually touch naked electric wires wit bare hand if there is no contact for leakage. the man on that pole has shoes on and hanged away from d ladder if u watch well. dats d simple explanation

It was a joke...kindly check my dp

I'll bet there's no current on that wire otherwise he would have been a grilled chicken by now

It is you that actually don't have knowledge about this. Why not make your findings before spewing trash.

This one you are screaming stop lying portrays you as an unintelligent person. An intelligent person when confronted with facts will counter it wt valid points. Moreso when even given a similar case study.

How come u fail to pick where I said an electric current can only shock when it flows from a body to the earth.

Exercise your brain Kid.

crackhouse:
including goalkeepers. Some players shot can eletrocute too.

And can even strip you naked and burn your hand
#SHAOLIN SOCCER#

Gud for him.......

the writer dont have work just seeking cheap web traffic while the man he snap his working with an outage permit
But ilitrate is a desease im sorry for the jobless nairralander on the street because anything they see on the street become their NEWS

Ok oooo D wise one but go n experiment it n see d result.High tension wire bn touched with bare hand while current running thru it.NA wa b like say I no do physic 4 school.

Bros!Not this type of current u hold with bare hands.U wan dey ni?

disloman:
B4 any work bn carried out on high tension wires,Power will have to bn switch off.With ten gloves,U will still b electrocuted.

in nigeria to be specific

I nor fit shawwt. Abeg help me wake dat guy up, tell am say GEJ don commot oooooooo.

The jumper must have been disconnected

989900:
There is a man india who can (live wire), without getting electrocuted.

I studied EE at UNN and electrically speaking, this is possible once the person isn't grounded i.e. connected to earth or standing on the ground (earth). The earth ground serves to complete an electric circuit and thus ensure the full flow of current round the circuit. Now, if someone hangs freely in the air from one of the 3 high tension lines, he/she wouldn't be electrocuted because his leg isn't touching the ground or earth that serves to complete the circuit. The hanging person would be just as a conductor, conducting electricity freely. However, the same person would immediately be electrocuted if his leg suddenly touches the soil or ground or someone standing uses a pole to touch the hanging person (both persons would be electrocuted because there is a direct connection to the earth ground).

In the case of the picture the op posted, there is clearly a connection or conductor between the nepa man touching the cables with his bare hands and the earth (the ladder) creating the perfect condition for electrocution however, there is no current flowing through the high-tension cables as the power must have been disconnected at the power station. Otherwise, he would easily be electrocuted if power is suddenly restored through the cables.

because there is NO electricity...
