Jury orders Ameren to pay $2.3 million to families of teens

From: Donald W Zipse
On the day of the incident the utility measured 10 amperes flowing from the water to the dock – to the house and back to the substation.
Using NEETRAC Manual on stray voltages (of which Ameren is a supporting member) to say that the recommended human body resistance when submersed in water is in the neighborhood of 300 ohms. Then told the jury that using these figures the voltage necessary to begin causing loss of muscle control is 1.8 volts.
BUT VOLTAGE DOES NOT KILL
DWZ was interviewed by counsel, but not hired for case. Too expensive probably.
