title: [Effect of various technical parameters on potential danger of an electric injury in the bathtub].
abstract: In contrast to common beliefs there is not strict necessity for lethal danger during electric shock in a bathtub. Measurements of the electric field demonstrates the ground conditions and water temperature are of vital importance as are a variety of other parameters. With an electronic amplifier especially designed for this problem measurement of the electric parameters in the water was made possible.
