Check out this link below, it explains a lot about thermostats and wiring. Some thermostats use 110 volts and yes you can get zapped. If it is residental most likely not.

It is really easy. The manual thermostat has 2 wires connected to the back. You unhook them and hook them to the electric thermostat. The electric thermostat should have directions as to which wire goes where. I did it in less than 15 minutes and I love it!How do i change a manual existing thermostat to a electric thermostat?
One of the best things I've done to my house (and I've done a lot).



Take the thermostat off the wall, disconnect the wires, and connect the wires to the new thermostat.



Thermostats use low voltage wiring. Don't worry about turning anything off. You won't get zapped.
This is a very simple switch. Remove old unit and unscrew the two wires. The new unit will tell you where to hook up the new wires. You might need to drill new mounting holes for you new unit. I recommend a digital thermostat with indiglo lighting.
The instructions come with the thermostat. It's easier to install the thing than to program it!
