A current of 200a is drawn from the outlet through the hot


An industrial electric circuit is powered by a two-prong polarized outlet through a feeder. The resistance of the neutral wire is 1.0Ω. The ground resistance at the service transformer is 20Ω. The chassis of the circuit is metallic and is connected to the neutral terminal of the outlet. A current of 200A is drawn from the outlet through the hot wire. If a person with 2kΩ resistance (including ground resistance) touches the chassis, compute the current through his body. Also state the type of hazard the person is exposed to.
