Does anyone know what kind of snake that is? I know something like 15 of the 17 most poisonous snakes in the world live in Australia, and at least a few lethal species live in heavily-populated areas.

the capacitor has enough stored charge to take out a human being, of course the snake is dead

No the red was from the insulation it had chewed off the fan wires. I have two exhaust fan above the P/S and he had been munching away at the wires.

It's suprisingly hard to chop a snake in two pieces.

Well I once heard that if you see ANY *brown* snakes in Australia...you run away. Most of the poisonous varieties are brown in color I guess...
