15. That must have been a jolt.

Did the toaster give you any resistance?
You should call an electrician. Your ground fault is at fault.
Wire you playing with a toaster near water?
Wire you such a wire nut. I believe you may have a loose connection, in yer head.
Simple Ohm's law formula study. V=IR With the source of resistance unplugged 0=00 or V/I=R solve for R when V=0 and I=0 or V/R=I solve for I when V=0 and R=0. It is shocking how much fun this is.
Are we now in phase or should I get the meter out to be sure we are 120 degrees apart. You have a three phase toaster right?
This one will ground you. I am not an electrician.
