Well said, Butch. FWIW, if you are not comfortable working with voltages over 240, then don't play with large arrarys.

it doesn't matter if you already told someone or are arrfrade of D.C., facts are factsComment

I have seen the result of someone having contact with 115V AC and know that they could have been killed but got lucky. I have also seen what a 480volt AC arc flash do to equipment and people. That type of flash can result in body parts being burnt to a crisp.
AC is not safer than DC. People who come in contact with either can be killed if they are not careful.
