Wasn't the rumor that she was taking pictures of her tits for her boyfriend or something and he couldn't wait for her to charge her phone properly, so she got an extension cord?

Forgive my ignorance, but doesn't phone chargers only deliver 5 volts and a few hundred mA? Wouldn't she have to drop the extension cord it self to be electrocuted?

Do you take all your clothes off and walk into a clean room before handling electronic components while wearing rubber gloves and attaching a grounding strap to yourself to minimize ESD? No? I wonder why that is.

As more devices get more and more water resistant, the fear of mixing water with electronics will diminish and eventually the only time we'll even think about it is when a freak accident occurs.

Not saying we're there right now since we're obviously not, but the transition has to start sometime, and some people will likely die along the way.

GFCI outlet should have prevented this. GFCIs have been required for wet or "damp" areas for like 40+ years. Sounds like either a very old house, the GFCI failed (not really likely but possible), or the girl used an extension cord to bring in power from another room.

>Nigga, everything should be protected. There really is no excuse.
In America GFCIs are required in any wet/damp area and AFCIs are required in living spaces like bedrooms and living rooms. AFCIs prevent electrical fires caused by arcs which are a more common problem in dry areas especially living spaces. GFCI receptacles are usually used to protect a whole room and AFCI circuit breakers are used to protect whole circuits. I'm not sure if they make combination AFCI+GFCI breakers but I don't believe they do.

You're not going deep enough. The article mentions that the girl was "at her father's house", implying that the father and mother are separated.
I think the father was having an incestruous affair with his teenage daughter, and that's why the parents are separated. The mother, hell bent on revenge, wants to kill her daughter and frame the father somehow, so he goes to prison for the rest of his life. However, the father actually FOUND OUT about these plans before she could execute them. So HE causes his daughter's accident by convincing her to use that extension cord, without telling her it was frayed (the article mentions it is frayed but she didn't know this).
Now the daughter is dead and they're getting huge media attention over this, meaning that the mother can't simply kill him anymore.
Just my 2 Cents.

>>61411024
No reason you can't have both. And there's literally no reason not to have your whole house protected by an RCD, unless you want your death to be somewhat unpredictable. I mean it's so fucking simple. Power comes into the house, power goes through your fucking RCD and then to wherever the fuck it needs to go.

>Old bathrooms are grandfathered in though.
Technically yes but if the occupants do any major renovation they have to bring the house up to code, wiring has to be safe, there has to be grounding, GFCIs and AFCIs will be required.

My recommendation is don't buy an old house. The electrical is scary to say the least. Some older houses used like aluminum wire that heated up and caught on fire occasionally. They also sometimes used shitty insulation on the wires that could deteriorate over time and cause arcing which can also cause a fire. Also they don't require grounding, AFCIs and/or GFCIs. Also they might use the older plug type circuit breakers that can get stuck closed and cause them to not work when they're needed.

It wasn't plugged into a socket in the bathroom. She used an extension from another room and the extension cord was apparently frayed and got water on it. She touched it and zappity zap.

Oh the ironing. I have no sockets with ground pins and only two that have grounded nuts to screw earth wires onto but at least the whole system is covered by a leakage breaker.

>>61411008
Actaully

Ground-fault and arc-fault weren't really mandatory in electric panels... or even bathrooms and kitchens in most places in the USA until like 10 years ago or so.

My place was built in 2010, and there are GFI and AFI in the panel and in the bathroom outlets.

>>61412955

Well, then she gets what she deserves... wouldn't have been a good woman-STEM quota candidate anyways.
>>
>>61410414
I'm still not really sure how she managed to get electrocuted. Was the extension cord IN the water? Was the buck converter for the phone a shitty Chineseium model without proper isolation or something?

Water isn't really as good a conductor as it's made out to be. Stick a live and neutral wire in a bowl of water and drop and LED in the bowl. It won't even light until it's maybe an inch or three away from the mains cables. Even if the she had the cord in the water I still can't imagine it'd kill her.

Was there a metal bathtub under the liner and she was capacatively coupled to it? Did the water have a lot of impurities, soaps, scented stuff, etc to increase conductivity? Where was the cable positioned relative to her body, what parts were submerged? Was the cable frayed and the wire making direct contact to her body? Did she have any heart issues?

I'm not disputing that she died but I know no 5V phone charger will kill someone. A whole lot of shit had to line up exactly right for her to die.
>>
>>61412955
What a fucking pansy. I've hit 120VAC and around 250VDC and lived to tell about it. I'll grant you in both circumstances my connection to ground was relatively high impedance, my skin was dry, and I made poor contact with the hot element but shit was still painful.

I also had a rather nasty experience discharging my oscilloscope CRT. I was using a screw driver with an alligator clip connected to earth to short out the anode on the CRT which was charged somewhere between 1-10kV. I was careless however and left my arm sitting on the metal framework of the scope... the frame that was earthed...
>>
>>61410472
>Forgive my ignorance, but doesn't phone chargers only deliver 5 volts and a few hundred mA?
If they are properly functioning, yes. Do remember that they are directly connected to mains voltage and need proper isolation, which is not a trivial feat.

>Water isn't really as good a conductor as it's made out to be.
Water is a very good conductor but it has plenty of resistance.
The amount of resistance is pretty much relative to the amount of water between the two points, so when you have cases like a bath or a bowl full of water the voltage drop is huge. But if you just have a spill, a thin layer of water, then it the resistance is much lower.

Basically, if you want to kill yourself in a bath with a toaster, don't fill the bath up, you just need a bit of a puddle on the bottom.

Just thought I should have checked resistance mode as well.

>when you have cases like a bath or a bowl full of water the voltage drop is huge. But if you just have a spill, a thin layer of water, then it the resistance is much lower
Are you retarded? Resistance is proportional to the length of the conductor, but inversely proportional to its cross section.
>the voltage drop is huge
Whenever you have voltage from a circuit over any realistic kind of body of water, the voltage drop of the water is going to the input voltage almost exactly, as the resistance of the water is orders of magnitude greater than the resistance of the rest of the circuit. What matters is that the actual resistance determines what current can pass through it.

Your picture doesn't match what you're saying. If the larger pool of water has a lower voltage drop, that just confirms that it makes out a smaller part of the total resistance of your circuit, meaning it has lower resistance.
>>
>>61410527

>>
>>61411085
That's not how it works. Even if you're not grounded, if that plug were actually connected, current flows between neutral and live, and not just directly through the shortest path, but corresponding to the electrical field lines, which flow throughout the entire pool. Since water and human bodies are of roughly similar resistivities, if you're in the right place, the current flowing through your body may be enough to stop your heart, and it doesn't require all that much at all. A few mA are enough, I think.
>>
I forgot to mention something most people seem unaware of.
Water is not electrically conductive. In fact, it’s a GREAT insulator.
The conductive thing is not the water, but what is IN the water.
The minerals/salts in the water are what allow conduction.

Considering people showering or bathing tend to put weird crap on their
bodies and in the water, it’s not surprising to see electrocutions there.

//youtu.be/dcrY59nGxBg

Also, voltage/current is not what kills you. Anyone who says it’s either
is retarded. It’s more nuanced, and is more about whether the electrons
are able to path through your heart, but the same guy has a bit of good

>>61413794
While that charger does seem shady, it’s unlikely to be relevant here.
It seems she touched the extension cord directly.
>>
>>61411222
It's technically true, but not directly with just the battery, as the voltage isn't enough by far to make enough current flow. With the right kind of step-up converter and perhaps a capacitor bank in case the AA can't supply enough power, then it's certainly possible.
>>
>>61413920
>are able to path through your heart
Normally, when one says that it's the amps that kills, one means amps through the heart.

>I think you mean low impedance.

No, I meant high. If there were a low impedance path to ground I'd be dead.

Assume the 1k resistor in pic related is roughly a worst case human body resistance model. One the left the body is shown with a high series impedance to ground with 15pF of capacitive coupling. On the right the body has a low series impedance to ground, only 100ohm nearly a short circuit. Look at the voltage across the 1k in both cases. On the left a paltry 3.86mV with 3.86uA of current flow. Not remotely lethal. On the right you have 109Vrms across your body with 109mA of current. You're dead.

Don't talk with such confidence about things you don't understand.

Right of course they'd use flyback converters for regulated 5V power supplies since they're galvanically isolated. Probably safer than an SMPS and simpler to build not that you couldn't also use a buck converter with either an isolation transformer pre-rectifier on the input or use opto-couplers but why would you?
>>
>>61414115
The resistance of human skin is significantly lower than usual when it's wet. You also have things that are not "surface skin" exposed when you're in the bath. Eyes, mouth, vagina, any open sores. There's a reason toaster in the bathtub is a meme suicide method.

Don’t rely on wikipedia for this crap.

About 18e8 ohms per meter.

That's factually incorrect.

Insulators should not pass any current. Water will pass current, but has a high resistance.

So it is a terrible insulator, but a great resistor.

Fair enough. To your credit if the voltage source had been attached directly across me with no other significant series impedance it I would definitely want a low impedance path in parallel with me to form a current divider to shunt most of the current away from my body. Ideally that path would be a short circuit and no current would flow through me at all.

What bothers me about headlines like this is it encourages all sorts of misconceptions about electricity. Just read some of the comments on the dailymail article (or in this thread for that matter) to see how uninformed people really are.

It should be obvious that it is 100% safe to use your phone in the bath when it's not connected to a charger. It is also safe to retrieve your phone if it falls in the toilet though I'd wear gloves at least for hygienic reasons. And I'll even go so far as to say it is relatively safe to use your phone in the bath when charging as long as you have GFIs, don't use cheap Chinese chargers, use well insulated mains cables (if you absolutely need an extension cord), and you keep any part that has mains voltage on it as far away from the tub as possible (mains cables and power brick).

Out of an over-abundance of caution however I would advise against charging a phone while in the tub in spite of the fact that it can be done safely. Either charge before hand or use a USB power bank, they are low voltage and pose no danger to you if it falls in.

Perhaps the best reason to not bring your phone in the tub is because if you drop that shit in you now are the proud owner of a $600 paperweight. You may not be dead but your phone certainly will be.

If you've got some EE, electrical technician, or electrician level knowledge then feel free to buy shitty Chinese chargers take them apart and see if they're built to some reasonable safety standard. Not every Chinese product is awful quality but it's a roulette. Normies have no idea how these chargers work and certainly will not bother to open them up nor would they even know what to look for inside. They think they are safe because they are being sold and nobody would ever sell something unsafe right? The government would never allow it, right?

That's what they think right up until they get electrocuted or their house burns down.

So there was an extension cord that was 120v AC that she pulled into the bathtub, that makes a lot more sense than she got killed by the <2A DC put out by a phone charger.
>>
>>61415271
2A through the heart is definitely easy to kill a human dead.
>>
>>61415307
Not if it's at 5VDC.

Your body would need to have a resistance of 2.5 ohms to push 2A through it and even in the absolute worst case your body's equivalent resistance will be roughly 400 times that. 5VDC can probably kill you if you stab the electrodes directly into your heart though even then it probably still won't push 2A. In pretty much every other circumstance it is 100% non-lethal.

To get 2A though your body in a worst case resistance scenario you need roughly 2kV. That's the kind of current you'd get through you if you bridged the secondary of a microwave oven transformer across your body.

>>
>>61415401
>>61415375
The voltage directly determines the current. V=IR. They are directly proportional. You may have a PSU that can output 2A of current but if it's a fixed 5V it'll never kill you because you present a high resistance which limits the current according to ohm's law. Phone charges aren't current sources that output a fixed 2A. The current will change based on the load. When you, a high resistance, touch the output of a phone charger the current that flows through you is negligible, a few microamps. That's why you don't die every single time you touch the end of your charger.

The amount of current across your heart is what ultimately determines whether you live or die however the voltage and resistance determine exactly how much current will flow through you. At AC capacitive and inductive reactances come into play as well.

A problem that will be solved. Also not even relevant yet. Just Netflix throwing a fit.
>A country where a mass shooting happens every week can't be a super power
That's a lie. The statistics are engineered to make it look a hell of a lot worse than it is. Also, forgetting about France/England?
>A country where there is no healthcare and you have to overpay for everything health-related can't be a superpower
Health insurance ≠ health care. There are free ways of obtaining care, including government clinics. Not saying it can't be better. It will happen, Obama cucked us too badly.
>A country with more propaganda and less human rights than china can't be a super power
Utter bullshit.

It's the extension cord.
There was a short article days earlier, and we already said at that time, that she must have had an extension cord pulled into the water or something.

And big surprise, she was a retard.
This is on the parents though.

Do americans not use RCDs on their power systems? I could put the end of the extension straight into the bath while I am in it and nothing would happen to me.

To be fair, though, that specific power supply wasn't really horribly designed or cheaped out on. It appears like just an honest mistake while the transformer was being wound. Clive does have a point when he says that these single-bobbin transformers are constant safety risks.

it's completely equivalent to a euro plug except for the grounding. the average person couldn't care less if it's grounded as long as it fits in the socket. it's not like they're going to modify their appliance to change the plug or whatever. there is no reason to distinguish between euro plugs and schuko plugs in everyday usage.

If you want a generic term, just say "mains plug" instead. Both of those mean something more specific than that.

It's not entirely obvious what even happened in this case, but if it is that she died due to isolation failure in the charger, then it's not entirely unreasonable to charge the manufacturer with it. It's like a gun that shoots even though the safety is engaged. Sure, it's just as unwise to bathe with plugged-in mains equipment as it is to shoot at people or yourself just because the safety is on, but still.
