For me 10KV to earth of a 100VA ignition transformer. Landed in a heap on the opposite side of the room.
The first tradesman I worked with was testing a hoist we’d rigged up on the test bed. I was reading the drawing and told him to short 1 to 3 on the control, he shorts 1 & 3 on the incoming 550V. Burns up both arms and across his chest where the wire vaporised. 4 months off work, poor sod!
As for the spanner across the bus-bars that was the training officers trick, I was the silly schmuck that closed the 1000A DMO OCB. DMO = dependant manual operation.
