At 8:00: "Electrical current will always follow the path of the least resistance" This is totally wrong and wide spread myth! Current takes all the paths, will be higher on less resistance and relatively lower with higher resistance. If there is lower resistance path and you touch a voltage source, current will flow through you, despite there is a lower resistance path.
Hi Hummer - this indeed is the point within the Webinar and it's further discussed with the secondary earth example, just not as eloquently put as how you described. Thank you.
Hummer -- your point is a good one. Though it could be argued that "Electrical current will always follow the path of the least resistance" does not actually deny that current will follow other paths.
A very informative and useful video for any ebme wanting to know the theory and practice of safety testing.
Please let me know if there any video on class of medical equipment and their sub class class I diff direct alt etc
Aamir Hassan here.
Very interesting
Great Video!
Thank you!
