Interesting post.....one of my many interests is electronics......
You could download this from the U.K. Humane Slaughter Association :

The charts there show 370 volts at 0.1 amps are
enough to go past "electro-immobilization" and into a state of "electrocution".
Microwave transformers delivering 1000 watts are around 2200 volt and 0.5 amp. There is enough there to guarantee that you will go before the fuse....and you don't even have to touch it.....it will jump a short air-gap.....
Electrocuting
chickens sounds like a pretty iffy way of doing things....even the commercial operations don't get it right all the time.....I think the animal rights groups call it "torture".....
Justin Rhodes of
Permaculture Chickens has a good video of butchering
chickens using a home-made "killing cone"
