I asked Mr Google and was told that 110V is safer. Really? Are there worksite statistics to back this up?
I realise there is a duty of care required of construction site employers but a RCD will most likely save a life, a reduction in voltage to 110 probably won't.
Are there regulations that cover the use of 110V as a safety measure or is it that there are lots of cheap 110V tools available?
I assume someone is using corded hand tools as 110 volts is not very useful for welding, cutting or other higher power requirements.
Thanks
