That electric shock might be a good last warning that you are about
to land wheels up. Just short one of the magnetos to a plate under
the pilots seat until the revs increase, or the wheels come down ;-)

For those that argue that you might be purposely landing wheels up,
I'd add that it would be a good reminder to kill the engine before
attempting a belly landing ;-)
