SAFETY

IEC 60479-1 Ed. 4.0 (2005-07)
Effects of current on human beings and livestock - Part 1:
General aspects
For a given current path through the human body, the danger
to persons depends mainly on the magnitude and duration of
the current flow. However, the time/current zones specified
in this publication are, in many cases, not directly
applicable in practice for designing measures of protection
against electrical shock. The necessary criterion is the
admissible limit of touch voltage (i.e. the product of the
current through the body called touch current and the body
impedance) as a function of time. The relationship between
current and voltage is not linear because the impedance of
the human body varies with the touch voltage, and data on
this relationship is therefore required. The different parts
of the humanbody (such as the skin, blood, muscles, other
tissues and joints) present to the electric current a
certain impedance composed of resistive and capacitive
components. The values of body impedance depend on a number
of factors and, in particular, on current path, on touch
voltage, duration of current flow, frequency, degree of
moisture of the skin, surface area of contact, pressure
exerted and temperature. The impedance values indicated in
this technical specification result from a close examination
of the experimental results available from measurements
carried out principally on corpses and on some living
persons. This technical specification has the status of a
basic safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104.
