Hi all,

recently had to use a (hot water tank fed) shower at a caravan site,
and experienced a definite tingle when I touched the pipework.
Informed site manager, and suggested he call an electrician, which he
did. Alledgedly nothing was found ("it could have been static" the
site manager said !!!!!!).

I imagine this is some earth fault, as I was completing a circuit with
the waste grille, and presumably earth.

I was curious as to how dangerous this could have been ...
conceiveably if there was a full circuit, then I would have got 240V
along my arm and down my torso ? Nasty ? Fatal ?
