Default Grounding--ground wire

You know it's funny. On paper that may be true, and I've always heard that
statement. BUT I've never heard of someone being killed by a 12 volt
battery, and when you do hear about someone being killed by electricity,
it's always some higher voltage.

Don't be silly.

A few volts will not harm you. It doesn't matter whether the wires are
carrying no current or are carrying many amps.



This is incorrect!! It is the amount of amps that kills you........not
volts!!
