Abstract
The voltages required for perception with good contacts are low in comparison to the 120-volt house circuits and it is essential that reasonable measures be taken to control leakage currents in household appliances and electrically operated hand tools and thus prevent adverse public reaction to the increasing use of electricity in the home and in industry.
