Voltage Shock from Inverter
Dear All,
Herewith sharing one most dangerous incident happened with me just 3days back which i cannot forget till my whole
life....Because it’s new birth for me as only GOD do survived me on that day...
Request you all to please take lot of CARE during working on Home Inverter accessories to avoid hazardous incidents... i am
sharing one of them here..
On last Sunday evening in betn 5:30pm‐6:00pm, my baby was slipping in the nearest room to Kitchen..My mother wanted to start
Mixer to prepare food.. I suggested my Mother to shift mixer in another room to operate, so that baby cannot wake up due to it’s
noise...& took that Mixer in another room to operate...
I had chosen one socket to plug that Mixer... I chosen the socket box which was already installed specifically for Home Inverter
(Microtek make) charging point (image attached) in that room... I removed the charging cable of Inverter very carefully by
switching off the button of Socket box first...
Once i removed inverter cable from socket box & tried to place it on nearest table which is just right hand side of Inverter
machine, unfortunately my thumb finger of right hand touched with Inverter cable pin plug... as i was under impression that there
is no current in the inverter cable pin plug as i already removed it from main socket box ...
...but i was wrong.. Current is always being there in Inverter cable till we do not switch off Inverter from its main ON/OFF switch
mounted on Inverter machine.. This same cable does Inverter charging also as well as backup electric supply also when main
electric supply cuts from Home appliances.. i.e if we remove this cable from Socket Box, Current will always remain in this cable till
we do not switch off Inverter from its main ON/OFF switch shown below ..
As my thumb finger touched with Inverter cable pin plug, suddenly i got a high voltage (220‐230V) shock from Inverter almost for 8
to 9 seconds.. i could not removed myself from Inverter cable... After lot of shouts from other family members, one of my family
members came to me as a GOD & removed that cable from my hand forcefully after 8‐9 seconds... & finally i survived.
I got a pains from whole body & was abnormal almost for 50‐60 minutes..
‐ Please keep Inverter & its all accessories to such a safe place where somebody can not access there easily.. water, heat
should not generate there..
‐ Put Inverter machine switch & Socket box switch in “OFF” mode before removing its cable from socket box.
‐ Don’t remove Inverter cable from socket box until it is very urgent to remove. Keep it as permanent connection till any
urgency occurs..
