I work in the electrical field. We have 125 volt battery banks with the center of the bank grounded. Accidentally coming in contact with the +62.5 or the -62.5 volt side to ground gives a wicked shock. A hit across the heart at that voltage could be deadly. Don't underestimate our "low" voltage systems.

Its DC.
A shock involves touching two wires, the + and the -.
Grounding is not involved (or present).
All dc wires are connected point to point.DC is considered "safe" at 48V DC, upto approx 80V.
Low voltage does not want to go through humans. We have high 10Mohm resistance, more or less, and poor conductivity.

As long as you are not grounded you can touch any connection in the system and not get a shock. But better to simply not touch any bare conductor in the first place.
