Stun guns, shock batons and cattle prods are electric shock devices which can be used as weapons against the human body. Stun guns cause temporary incapacitation of the body whereas the other devices do not. The electrical outputs of examples of each type of device were measured using a digital storage oscilloscope at the moment when the device was discharged across resistors chosen to simulate the resistance of the human body. The outputs from the stun guns and the non-incapacitating devices have characteristic waveform shapes and magnitudes: significantly, the peak current from the stun guns is two orders of magnitude greater than from the other devices. To understand the possible hazardous effects of these outputs on the human body, the output parameters were related to the available information on the effects of electric currents on the human body and on the electro-immobilization of farm animals.
电击枪、电击警棍和电牛棒都是电击装置，可用作攻击人体的武器。电击枪会导致人体暂时失去行动能力，而其他装置则不会。在每种装置通过选择用来模拟人体电阻的电阻器放电的瞬间，使用数字存储示波器测量了每种装置示例的电输出。电击枪和非致瘫装置的输出具有特征性的波形形状和大小：值得注意的是，电击枪的峰值电流比其他装置大两个数量级。为了了解这些输出对人体可能产生的有害影响，将输出参数与关于电流对人体影响以及对农场动物进行电固定的现有信息相关联。
