I'm glad you don't have 230V in yours outlets.
We do have 220v or 240v (depending on distance from power station) in appliance outlets including ovens and washing machines. But those are always kept on different circuits.
J-money P 240v in the USA are two 120v phases 180 degrees opposite of each other. In Europe it's 230v between neutral and any phase and 400v between two phases, of which there are three, each 120 degrees apart. But sure it's 240 volts that the USA has ;)
230v hurts really bad. Believe me.

Dude, I'm an electrician and I was cringing through this. And really disappointed by how badly that GFCI worked. Please be careful.
...but also: that video was awesome.
My stomach is still in knots.
SwingboyPA It might be a good idea for the GFCI standard to be restricted down to 0.8ma, but then it might trip from leakage currents, like from Suicide Showers.
I've tripped GFCIs at work many times, it was partially because of bad distribution board design, a good GFCI has neutral to earth detection too, the breakers they had were either single or 3 pole, with GFCIs 2 pole or 4 pole is better, since you also break the neutral, how I tripped them most of the times was working with the breakers after the GFCI off and touching neutral
Sadly a lot of products are awefull. I have a 230v 16 amp breaker for a part of my kitchen yet i can still put a 3000 watt water cooker and 1800 watts oven on it at the same time without it flipping. I just avoid using both at the same time as i dont feel like spending 400 bucks on replacing a 20 bucks part.
british RCDs trip at very low amperages compared to GFCI outlets
@@pino_de_vogel Breakers doesn't open instantly in overload conditions, they open under a "curve" which determines the maximum and the minimum time they can open during an overload condition, if it is slightly greater than the breaker capacity it may take several minutes to over an hour to open! If the current is way bigger than the breaker cappacity (but not over than its short-circuit detection) then it will open in few seconds (as the breaker internal components will heat much faster than the wires)! In your case you have 4800W under 230V, which takes 20,8Amps from your wires and your 16A breaker, so you need to get the datasheet of you breaker and check how much time it needs to open with 20 or 21Amps, it certanly will open before the wires get too hot (in case you are using 1,5mm² wires) which is not a problem at all, it was made to work that way. In my country we use NEMA (old homes) and DIN (newer homes) standards and I find the DIN breaker better than the NEMA because they are better at overload conditions.
We measured on the oscilloscope the time it takes to shut down. Very fast indeed!

Actually the current is getting really dangerous around 20 mA. Probably painful below this value, but not fatal.
If you set the breaker threshold too low, the cable’s parasitic capacitances will continuously trigger it,
especially in Switzerland where these breakers protect the whole house instead of one outlet

Don't be a simple man - How would you know if EB is lying to you?

Shockingly true.
ElectroBOOM always "electrocutes" himself in every video, always. That's part of what makes his video's work for people who don't have an electronics background. The 30VDC across the tongue was pretty damn funny, and painful for him.
Your usual videos scare the crap out of me, but this was extra scary. I've accidentally shorted a live wire as a kid, on 220V and it was not a pleasant experience. Luckily, my dad was nearby and he pulled me away from the socket. This video brought back memories.
I short wires all the time and its not risky at all (until you make physical contact with them). I'm a electrical engineering student.
Jordan Johnson don't know what you're trying to say.

Great video. Too many people take GFCI less seriously than they should. The manufacture is crap too. Test every month... who the hell remembers to do that? They cost too much and fail too fast. A better design is needed to save lives.
ElectroBoom, I know no one should touch live wires, but, whenever it's needed (like in the tests you just did), in order to avoid the flexion of your muscles of your hand around the wires - making you grab the wires - you can use the back side of your hand, therefore, if your muscles flex, you will automatically pull away from the wires, instead of grabbing them!

Riki Z. Guys at brazzers
U.S. Electrician here. I have worked with both RCCB's in Europe and GFCI's.
One weakness GFCI's have is the mechanism will NOT operate under a short circuit condition.
For those that do not know, GFCI's monitor the current between the hot and neutral. In theory, under normal operation, the current on the phase will match the current on the neutral. If there is a difference, 3-5 milliamps for GFCI's, between the two, the GFCI mechanism will sense that imbalance and trip, since the design assumes the imbalanced current is then going to ground. Hence "Ground Fault".
However, under a short circuit condition from phase to neutral, in spite of the high amperage, the current will remain the same from phase to neutral, thus not triggering the GFCI function.
I have tried this myself at home. I have taken two wires, inserted them into the hot and neutral slots of a GFCI outlet, then touched them together. Sure enough, the circuit breaker (A new one I replaced) tripped under an overcurrent condition, but the GFCI on the outlet never functioned.
Still, around water, GFCI's have saved lives, since most equipment have means to provide a path to ground.
Does that matter? Short circuit most, if not all the current is going through the short. Sure, for a long enough wire in a short, I could see enough current at voltage going though a wet hand kill you. But if the short is a complete short, then the breaker will trip in a millisecond and you are not electrocuted. I must be missing another scenario here, where a short with no GCFI protection still kills you in the tub, with your toaster, making breakfast.
Why would this matter? The circuit would have overcurrent protection from the branch circuit breaker in the panel
That's the point. You have an OCPD already and it has the correct time curve too. Don't need an EGC either (proof is NEC 406.4(D)(2)(c) which lets you use a 3-conductor grounding-type receptacle on a 2 conductor circuit without EGC provided you protect it with GFCI)
Thank you for your long, well informed comment.
Mcb is for that purpose I guess...
8:59 That inner scream sounded so weird
10:54 That laugh xD
NOTE: installing GFCIs don't give you an excuse to bring live electronic devices with you into the water. It only makes it so that, if a live electronic device falls into the water for whatever reason, it *might* not kill you. Best way to avoid danger is to not put yourself into a risk situation in the first place!
Most of the time I take showers, therefore using devices in the bathtub is not practical. Whenever I bring electronics into the bathroom I usually leave them in the washbasin so that sound waves bounce off its surface and boost the sound throughout the whole bathroom. Thus I don’t need my electronics to be closer to me and it is a good compromise
Unless you have an existing heart condition or the GFCI fails, it's almost impossible for that to kill you. Not saying he's right in doing dangerous stunts but the likelihood he would die is mathematically negligible
i think soon this guy will become immune to electricity in coming years😂😂😂😂
You can never get imune to electricity. You can only get adapted to the pain which it deals, but it doesn´t matter how many times you got zapped, because there is always the voltage and the current that can kill you even without noticing (probably too late for it)
@@mikolaspesek Bro he was joking lol

I remember in our electronics lab, our instructor had us measure our internal resistance and keep a food log. Some days, we would drink salt water and monitor the changes throughout digestion. It was fascinating to see how much could kill you when you were hung over (dehydrated) versus a night of homework before.
These have been required in Europe for years, the entire house circuit is connected to a GFCI, one for dry circuits, one for wet circuits (bathroom, toilet, kitchen, ...). The latter has a lower tolerance (typically 30 mA)
Plug sockets are not even allowed in UK bathrooms except for the specially designed "shaver outlets". Even light switches are often left outside the bathrooms.

When I was an intern as electrician in the late 80s in Denmark, we were phasing out HFI relays (0,3 A GFCI) in advance of HPFI relays (0,03 A), which is still the standard today.
They are 3 phase and mounted in the circuit box, because we have 3 phases as standard in all houses. The HPFI goes in front of all other fuses.

We in argentina have the rule that every installation must have an GFCI circuit breaker on the fuse box, in a home installation these will trigger with 30mA
Edit: corrected the 50ma to 30ma
Same here in Germany. Sometimes I wonder how unregulated (or unsave) some parts in the US and Canada are. A GFCI isn't too pricey and may prevent injury or even death. Get your shit together USA.
I think our plugs are kinda bad as well compared to European ones.
I don't think so. The US-Type plugs (NEMA) are cheaper to produce and have all the same safety features as the German SCHUKO while being protected against plugging in reversed polarity. Truly better is the IEC 60906 plug as it has a much smaller form-factor.

Hello Electroboom, you are my favourite RUclipsr . One day when I was soldering for my first time I got a 60 watts shock from the soldering iron six times and I also got a shock of outlet of 220 volts that is ac when I was 9 years old
3:53 to clarify, it doesn't actually detect a short between live and earth but an imbalance through live and neutral. This means if you form part of the normal circuit you don't disrupt balance there, but if you form a circuit with the live and any conductor that's not the protected circuits neutral, it'll trip.
5:54 sounds like stepping on a cats tail
i cryed at that bit i found it so funny just the shock on his face like why the fuck did i do this lmao
5:53 LOOOOOOOOOL!!! Tongue DC!
I can't stop laughingXDD

Here in Spain, we only have one GFCI in our homes. It can open the circuit between 15 and 30 mA. Also if there is a swimming pool or something like, there are special GFCIs that open between 5 and 10 mA, but they are very expensive and difficult to see them.
Love your channel keep it up, dont die
You are a comedic genius, intentional or otherwise.

i love how your experiments are iterative. Sometimes just seeing a perfect demo prejudices you of the chance to see what could go wrong before everything works out right .
5:22 dry hands starts to play
The GFCI it's called it in other countries RCD or RCCB
GFCI = Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
RCD= Residual-Current Device
RCCB= Residual Current operated Circuit-Breaker
And only in Germany and Austria and maybe in Switzerland it's called "FI Schutzschalter"
(F=Fehler=fault
I= physics formular symbol for current (I=ampere)
Schutzschalter = protective switch)
10:18. I know that pain.. anyone whose poked an electrical outlet the wrong way with a screwdriver will understand.. The fact that you can sit there and hold your hand on it tho! Props to your resolve..
James August shouldnt they be isolated?
I honestly think 230V feel pleasant but Im not touching them on purpose of course.
Had to change a light bulb socket once and I though the breaker for that area was down. Needless to say it was not and had 230V run through me for 3-4 seconds. My hand got paralyzed for a bit ( a good minute or two) but other than the extreme pain for those brief seconds and the paralysis; it wasn't all that bad.
Moral of the story: Make sure the breaker is off when changing a light-bulb of any kind (or socket) and just don't play with high voltage; it hurts!
I got an electric shock when tinkering in a distribution board while ginderly holding the earthed door with the other hand. It left me with a burn mark on my fingers and pain in my arm for several days and I could have died but the second of the shock felt amazing. And no it didnt trip the GFCI even though the current through my body must have been dangerously high, because we have a single one for the entire house that has a quite high triggering current so that it wont false trigger.
James August i jumped two ends of a live wire with 230v running through (accidentally obviously). Did it with both index fingers for about half a second. The one the current was coming from got burnt and still felt sore after +3 months. Electricity is a powerful bitch.
This is standard in every house in Germany. It´s called RCD - Residual Current Device. ;-)
Same as Australia, all power outlets must have an RCD in the circuit breaker
Actually it isn't the same. The real RCD (like in Germany) isn't installed directly at the socket, but w/ the other fuses.
In it, all three phases and neutral (NOT EARTH) are running through a coil. The sum of the currents in a three-phase system is always zero.
So, if there is a fault current anywhere (something going to earth etc.), the sum of the currents isn't zero. Thereby, a current is induced in the coil, what triggers the RCD immediatly (a few milliseconds). As far as I know, this also triggers at much lower currents than the device tested here.
The downside: harder to install and you need three-phase w/ seperate neutral and earth (do all houses in the States even have three-phase? I don't know). But, of course, we have to be a little more careful regarding electricity anyway, w/ 230V.
MrBavaria lel there is no plug or switch in bathroom in uk we use string to turn on light
We still have none in our house ._.
In most part of Europe it is a safety standard. RCDs protect people from being electrocuted and it helps also to prevent cable fires.

Fun fact, most injuries resulting from electric shock are reactive. Like pulling your hand away and jamming your elbow through a window pane or pulling your hand away and plunging the screwdriver you were holding into your shoulder. Not that Ive done either of those.
In Brazil we don't have GFCI on the outlet, I guess is one of those for the whole bathroom and another one for the house, plus we have those electrical showers so it would be safe.
