Which section of the NEC says Low voltage is safer than high

You can quote the verbage here, " "


Mostly stuff about gfci requirements would suit.


I wonder why sidewalk lighting is low voltage?


240vac 2 phase (black, blue and red) number 10 wire lighting?


I never asked if it was low or high.


Your responses are very strange.

I'll ask again.

voltage.

Put that sentence here ---" "

Maybe this will solve the misunderstanding.

Assume the load is the same for both, which will cause more current
to flow, a higher voltage or lower voltage?

If you get the answer correct, my work is done.

"The NEC does not consistently define low voltages."

I had to paint the interior of NEMA-spec control boxes orange if over
40V was present within them, but I don't remember whose requirement
that was, perhaps one of the many General Motors internal standards.

The US NEC isn't the only electrical code.

I inferred from his comment that he thought 277 volts was safer than
120 volts. The part I inferred was 120 volts.
