BATHROOM SHOCKS.
Keep Away From Electric Fixtures
While Your Skin Is Wet.

While Your Skin Is Wet.
A man is in much greater danger
from electric shock when taking bath
than under ordinary conditions, as the
surface of the body when moist offers
much less resistance to the current
than when dry Persons have been
killed while bathing by current that
would scarcely have affected them out
side the bath. says Cosmos of Paris.
Balthazard told at the Society of
Legal Medicine of the case of a lady
killed by electric shock in her bath
room at the moment when she was
pressing the button of an electric bell
between the poles of which there was
difference of potential of not more
than Ito volts.
In ordinary circumstances, owing to
the great resistance of the human body,
such a small electromotive force pre-
sents no great danger, but when the
circuit contains, as in the case report
ed, large surface of moist skin the re-
sistance fails and more than 100 milli-
amperes may pass through the organ
ism, sufficient at this tension to pro-
duce death by tetanization of the re-
spiratory muscles.
Currents of even forty six volts are
dangerous in a bathroom. 1t should be
remembered that currents of feeble in
tensity can produce a sudden rise of
arterial tension capable of causing sud
den death in a person with a weak
heart.
High tensions, enabling currents Of
four to five amperes to pass. have
quite a different effect. They do not
generally cause death, because the
notifications of the tissue produced at
the point of contact at once oppose a
considerable resistance to the passage
of the current The intensity within
the organism is not sufficient to cause
tetanization of the respiratory mus
cles. and the LESSONS are usually purely
local.
Socquet also observed a case of
electrocution with an electromotive
force much lower than / 10 volts. There
was no burn at the point where the
current entered hut at the autopsy the
lungs showed the characteristic LESSONS
of asphyXia and even actual lacera-
