I just didn't realize you were talking about LARGER electrolysis cells such as one would use in medium-sized industry.To which I replied
To better explain
It can (or not) take less then 1 amp of HIGH voltage AC to kill you - at the very least "a few" amp of HIGH voltage AC will shock the living daylights out of you
Example; - touch the bare copper end of 120 volt 15 amp AC wire (what your household outlets are wired with) & it will shock the living daylights out of you
On the other hand with LOW voltage DC you can touch the bare copper (of the positive side of the circuit) with A LOT of amps & you will not even feel it
Example; - I worked (as a contractor) wiring up the DC rectifiers for a very large aluminum anodizing plant
The rectifiers that provided the DC power to the very large anodizing tanks (which are basically the same as a silver or copper cell) had an output of 25 DC volts with the potential of delivering as much as 20,000 amps
The bare copper bus bars that ran from the rectifier to the anodizing tanks where about 8 - 10 inches wide & about 3 - 4 inches thick
You could reach up & grab ahold of those bare copper bus bars & feel absolutely nothing even though there was a huge amount of amps running through them

Every little garage setup I saw was talking about 1 or 2 amps at the most. I suppose Sreetips cells might use a bit more, since some of those are rather large.
