With some of the chatter on stray voltage and tingling hands, I throw my VOM (volt ohm meter) into the tank this morning and found 4.5 volts. I know I should probably make like an ostrich, and stop looking for problems.
Anyway, is this something that I should be concerned about? Later today I’ll start pulling plugs to see if I could find the culprit. And, if I find the culprit, is that enough stray that I pitch that unit and buy another? OR, is a little voltage OK?
I did add to the PA group buy a grounding probe. The concern I have with this is that it potentially covers up the problem. I like what one person wrote in an earlier post…unplug the probe on occasion to test for stray voltage.
