This chapter indicates values for the electrical impedance of the human body as a function of the touch voltage, the frequency, the degree of moisture of the skin and the current path.Note. The values given in Clause 5 refer to frequencies of 50/60 Hz; values for higher frequencies and for direct current are under consideration.
