I think someone said that 300 mA or 0.3A was needed to electrocute you. Or
was it 130 mA?
I heard 30mA.
Anything over about 15ma can be lethal thru external skin contact,
depending on the circumstances.
But it depends. People have been killed by a couple of
microamps. Open heart surgery, ground loop through some (defective)
equipment. That's why hospitals are anal about grounding.
