As above... was just plugging in my laptop charger into an extension lead and i must have touched the plug for the lamp that was plugged in which i can now see had some bare wires exposed... (This is not my house btw so had no idea it was like that)

Got a pretty nasty sensation in my hand but didn't get thrown back or anything and feel fine, the trip switch tripped almost immediately.

Is it likely to have caused any damage?

I don't think this is medical advice but if it is mods feel free to lock/delete

EDIT: i was wearing quite thick shoes and on the first floor of the building would that have decreased how bad the shock was?
