and i know,
replaced a fuse in an active 240 volts preamp holding both ends with each hand. I had a very :evil: massage from hand to hand passing chestmuscles etc...
still feels a little dodgy in my right forearm ... I can see a little blue trace and it feels like a broosed (eng?) spot in my arm.
I survived, but just wanted this to report, if i was standing barefoot it would probably been a lot worse!
Never thought this would happen (again), but sometimes we can get so exited of finding the solution to a malfunction, that being carried away makes us (well ME) make mistakes.
Don't let this happen to you,
ALWAYS UNPLUG FROM MAINS WHEN TOUCHING HIGH VOLTAGES CIRCUITS INSIDE GEAR OR PCB'S!!!
