A human body wouldn’t conduct that much current with mains voltage. It’s just too high resistance.
Also pretty sure they mean breakers with GFCI as is required in some countries. If they just mean regular circuit breakers then yeah they are fucked.
Although tbf since it has both neutral and live in the strip it would probably short and not even reach the people. As in almost no current would go through them because ground is right next to it. This would in turn cause the breaker to trip without even a GFCI getting involved potentially.
Lmao it will definitely conduct enough to stop your heart if you’re well grounded. In this case these morons are likely ok because they’re in an aboveground rubber pool. If they were in an in ground pool with a nice metal drain or copper pipes for the water supply, they would be conducting just dandy if they stood in the wrong place.
Yeah you were talking about 100s of Amps. A human body won’t conduct that without a lot of voltage/potential difference. You don’t even need 1 amp to kill you though.
Yeah if there is exposed and grounded pipe work present that changes things somewhat. The lowest resistance path is probably still back through the same power strip the electric came from through, as water isn’t the best conductor out there.
