Screech said:My old printer power pack is a 30volt, 400 Milliamp power supply.
My multimeter shows 40volts when the power pack is unloaded.
Will I get zapped if I touch the 40 volts DC?
At what voltage would I start to feel a tingle?

In you are working a confined space, just jumping back can bring you contact with lethal objects or make you fall from a height.

Just jogged my memory, re aerials.
A number of people have been killed installing/moving loft/attic aerials.
One hand on the metal cold water header tank, to steady themselves and the other hand holding the aerial. Bye!!
