abstract="Due to technical innovations and strict safety regulations the rate and mortality of accidents caused by electric current has been considerably reduced. Nevertheless there are still deaths caused by electric shock, which are mostly due to carelessness and ignorance. The described death by electric shock of a 39-year-old man was the consequence of an electrotechnical curiosity. When repairing a cut extender cable, he installed a second socket on the one part and a second plug on the other.
