Hello,
This question is purely for research purposes.
In the event that an appliance (hairdryer) was dropped into a bath with a person on it, and a circuit breaker was tripped in the consumer unit, could this shock still prove fatal or would the breaker save their life? I know that this is the purpose of the breaker, but have heard of these incidents occurring and wondered what sort of fatality rate we're looking at.
Again, this is purely for academic curiosity. Many thanks for your help!
