Hal, it's done all the time. I knew an (old) electrician who told me he tested 120 vac any day of the week with his fingers, tested 240 vac on a dry day, but never messed with 440.

Like I say, he was pretty old.

Don't be foolish and think you can try detecting 120 or 240 with your fingers. You may end up dead.
