It can be mild, like when you accidentally touch a faulty plug, or serious, like contact with a downed power line. Fatal electric shocks are called electrocutions.<\/p><p>The danger level depends on the voltage. Higher voltage means more electricity and greater risk. But don\u2019t underestimate low-voltage shocks- these can still cause internal injuries that aren\u2019t obvious right away.
