  1. Typically, the electrical stimulus used in electroconvulsive therapy is about 800 milliamps, and the current flows for between one and 6 seconds.


  2. It wouldn't be much....and it would be just DC voltage & minimal amperage....its Amps (current) that will electrocute you...thats why people who get zapped by lightning generally survive....it might be Hundreds of Thousands of volts but hardly any current....
