I'm not into the technical, I was doing some consulting at a local Nuke plant, forced to park my truck under High Voltage lines of about 1 bazzilion volts. The body of the truck was very uncomfortable to touch if you were well grounded.

We had a fire suppression unit that hung from below. The person making that hook up with the chopper hovering above had better ground the loop to the latch before touching any part of the chopper. I never saw it get anyone, but in the winter time, you could weld with the spark coming off that dud.
