Usually listed as 30mA from what I've seen, it varies per person though.
Micro-amps aren't that dangerous, it's when you get above a few mA that things get risky. My physics teacher back at school shocked himself on an EHT supply at 5kV, it was current limited to 5mA and he survived (just said "ouch" loudly). As long as you use a current limited EHT supply it's not more dangerous than dealing with the AC line (probably much less dangerous in fact).
