Amperage is a measure of how much juice it takes to blow the fuse and break the circuit.

(15,574 posts)5. Volts jolt, amps kill
If he's alive, someone broke the circuit or there was a breaker that broke it for him. It's the current that kills. Volts will make your skin burn and your muscles contract and such like, but to kill, there has to be a lot of current, and simple mains power volts and amps is way more than enough to kill if the circuit is not broken. Perhaps someone kicked the mic out of his hand. If so, that was a good friend who risked also being electrocuted.

Less Ohms, more Current.
