The best answer I can find is 60 volts. I'm not sure if this is AC or DC. However, it's not just the voltage that kills. You can be electrocuted by a car battery if you make a good connection to both poles. Most car batteries have around a 600 amp output. Even at 12 volts, this can be deadly. Keep in mind also that it's easier to be killed by DC than by AC. ---- IF YOU'RE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOB

REFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS. If you do this work yourself, always turn off the power at the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work AND always use a meter or voltage indicator to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.
