This webinar will begin at 9.30am BST
In our every day lives we interact with electrical equipment frequently, often without thinking about it. With good product and system design, construction, use and maintenance, the electrical systems and equipment we use do not present a hazard. But when those principles go wrong, they can result in electric shocks. The resulting effects can vary widely, from an ‘unpleasant tingle’, through life-changing burn injuries, to fatal shock (electrocution).
 
Electrical Engineer Richard Heath will review the basic concepts of electric shocks, how they occur, and how electric shock personal injury cases are investigated.
