I think for many people it’s fear of the unknown. Once you understand how electricity behaves, you start to instinctively know what’s dangerous and what’s not. You can clearly see this in YouTube videos on solar, where people explain how their solar systems work. It’s pretty clear which presenters know what they’re talking about and which ones are just repeating things they’ve read without truly understanding what’s going on. I think once you gain that fundamental insight into what’s actually happening, everything else starts to fall into place and it makes a lot more sense, it’s a lot less mysterious, and much less intimidating.
