My other half got a belt on the shoulder from our fence on a Gallagher mains energiser she told me it knocked her to the ground and she felt funny for a few minutes after

Briggs and stratton engine where you had to short the plug to stop would often give a heart stopping shock to the unaware
when I was about 7 I was cutting the lawns and when I came to shut the mower off the earthing bit was missing so got an old hacksaw blade and touched the spark plug,not sure how long I held on before I thought I'm getting a funny feeling here and let go , might explain a lot :rolleyes::LOL:

Bought some cut out switches from mole valley but the don't f@#king cut out! Leave 1kv coming down the fence line. Not inmpressed! Taking all of them back as they can not test before suppling replacements.

Just get some neoprene Wellies and rock back on the heels for max insulation - black rubber gum boots are no use as the black carbon in them conducts leccy.
