I was doing some work in a kitchen today (worktops new doors and sink) was removing the sink which was connected to the copper supply pipes with a couple of lengths of plastic pipe.
I drooped my screwdriver behind the washing machine (not plugged in) and when I went to retrieve it, the back of my hand came into contact with the water pipes and I got a belt.
What would cause this to happen and why was the voltage so low? I say low as the belt was not 230 volts, have had one of those and this was nothing like it.
Any local spark fancy taking on the job of testing and repairing for the homeowner, he has not been able to find a local spark so far.
