A safety feature of the isolated power system is illustrated.
An individual contacting one side of the isolated power system (point A) and standing on the ground (point B) will not receive a shock. In this instance, the individual is not contacting the circuit at two points and thus is not completing the circuit. Point A is part of the isolated power system, and point B is part of the primary or grounded side of the circuit.
