Interesting. I have a mild (probably healthy) phobia of getting shocked when I'm doing wiring around the house. And I was "acquainted" with electric fences on farms as a kid. I've been imagining house wiring would feel similar.

    I was shocked from doing wiring once, it was uncomfortable but not painful. I had just wired up a replacement light switch for a family friend and I had my hand in there moving it to center it for the faceplate when they turned the breaker back on.

    My mom has a similar experience, light switch and all, and it was much more violent.
