Fortunately, he survived.

electricity". By definition you can't survive electrocution. A
"shock" is a non-lethal contact with electricity. As a power supply
electrical engineer I have been zapped many times. Never as bad as
your uncle- As far as I can tell I have suffered no permanent
effects... Though some might argue the point.
