Just a short note here. I constantly talk on the phone while
lazing in my hot tub. The phone is NOT cordless. So am I putting
myself at risk talking on the phone while in the hot tub?
Thanks...Jim


Yes. There's 90V and lethal current available on the phone loop.


No its 48 volts to stay under the limit of 50 volts for working live permits
etc.


Doesn't it vary from one city to another?
