How many volts will a latex glove resist?

The companies are manufacturing latex gloves for the requirement of the market. If you are using low volt, the glove is available upto the capacity of 600 V, similarly, for Medium volt, there is 6000 volt capaicity and High tenstion, you will get gloves accordingly. The thickness and the material will have certain level of die electric strength of the material. Dont get wonder, read the books on insulation or die electric strength of materials.

Latex gloves have about the same resistance to electricity as a latex condom. To test the resistivity of latex, put on a condom and stick your winky in a light socket.

All you ever wanted to know about electricity will be learned .

Not many.

There are resistivity values for all materials.

I have seen 480 V reistant rubber gloves cook a hot dog inside of them because of a pin hole in the rubber.

Thin latex breathes.

Don't trust it for anything over 40 V. In other words they are useless.

Resist until what? A small tingle or an electrocution? DO NOT USE LATEX GLOVES TO ISOLATE YOURSELF FROM SERIOUS SHOCK HAZARDS - the actual material may be an insulator of sorts - but it is WAY too thin and fragile to be used for that purpose.

Since latex gloves are not designed to protect against electrical shock. I would not recommend or even try it myself. Given that standard 120V service is the most common killer of people concerning electricity DO NOT USE these gloves for electrical safety.

Depends on the glove... environment(humidity, etc)

and type/level electricity.

good experiment for people on your better dead list though...

Treat all circuits as energized AND don't rely on thin/cheap latex to prevent your dying!

Even if latex has good insulating properties, it is very thin and even low voltage might jump to your skin.

depends on the thickness of the latex.

not very many... The material is usually very thin. Try thick leather or rubber electrician's gloves.

None. Latex is NOT rubber.
