with your  fingers.


You certainly can detect it with your fingers. The wisdom of so doing is  
completely another matter.
 
I find the problem is that after years of 5/12/24 volt stuff, I find it  easy 
to forget when working on stuff with high voltages (like 200 - 300 volts)  
that you mustn't poke your clammy fingers in amongst the components!
