Why 13 Amps?

50Hz AC has greater losses and is not as efficient as 60HZ.
Due to the slower speed 50Hz electrical generators are 20% less effective
than 60Hz generators. Electrical transmission at 50Hz is about 10-15% less
efficient. 50Hz transformers require larger windings and 50Hz electric
motors are less efficient than those meant to run at 60Hz. They are more
costly to make to handle the electrical losses and the extra heat
generated at the lower frequency.Oh well. He wasn't successful with the rubber cosh anyway.

I didn't actually read to the end, was he charged?

Here you go....

Maybe because of the rubber cosh they decided it was an isolated incident.

These jokes are shocking. I'm resisting the urge to pull the plug on this thread. Keep it up and I'll blow a fuse. Jeez, I'm getting amped over this!

I suppose they wanted to keep the public insulated from the whole thing.

Ohm my, this is a revolting current in this conversation and it should be rectified immediately. Such matters should stay grounded in fact and not arc too far out of bounds.

That's quite enough. We've all had ample.
I just wish that north america had adopted a sensible plug/socket design like the UK. Having just built a house I have been quite horrified at how flimsy and tacky the electrical stuff is. On the other hand, I wish the UK would adopt the decidedly more civilised plumbing standards...

I just started laughing till it Hz.

I suppose that the fact that he couldn't get her to stay in the chair long enough to throw the switch 'ampered his plans somewatt.
(and if you think UK plumbing is bad, you should try Greece)

I guess that's what the riots are all about. . .

.... I see there are some 'sparks' flying in this thread
