"A live wire is a wire with current flowing through it. Because neutral doesn't have any current in it, but line does, you could say that line is live. This explains why that you can be shocked from touching just the line. You can't be by touching just the neutral or ground. Line to neutral is the most deadliest if it travels across you. Line to ground will tingle a lot, but it won't necessarily kill you because the current draw isn't nearly as much as line to neutral." from: http://www.answers.com/Q/Is_line_wir...lled_live_wire Bill In your dreams, grab hold of a "live' wire and prove I'm wrong then. |
