    The white cover on the cable to my iPhone charger is damaged & the wires are exposed. Can I be electrocuted If I touch the bare wires & if so will it be as serious as with a bigger " real" electric cable!?

    Sure give it a lash, make sure your hands are very wet though. If you get shocked then report back here so we can laugh our bolloxes off.

    It won't electrocute you,OP, but it will cause your phone to charge slower because the electricity will leak out of the hole in the cable.

    Just get a new cable?

    Bah Duggy.....
    Urinate on the cable only when you're sure the cable is live.
    Just keep your willy 1 centimeter away and aim stream at cable.
