Copyright 2004 American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, St. Joseph, Mich.Authors: Gustafson, Robert J., and Mark T. Morgan Keywords: Stray Voltage Screening and Diagnostic Procedures, Basic Data, Voltage Testing Setup, Test Number One: Initial Voltage Measurements, Test Number Two: Primary Neutral Test, Test Number Three: Secondary Neutral Test, Test Number Four: Locating Electrical Problems in Milking Area Equipment, Test Number Five: Further Monitoring, Test Number Six: Isolated Neutral Test, Test Number Seven: Off-Farm Source Confirmation– Standby Power Supply Use, Testing Equipment The following step-by-step procedure is intended to help farmers, and others who arent necessarily experts in electricity, determine if there may be a stray voltage problem on the farm. It is desirable to make these measurements during periods when the electrical load on the farm is high (i.e., during or near time of milking cows). Establishing of an isolated reference ground and connecting the voltmeter leads to the reference ground and barn service entrance ground as described in Standardized Measurements in Chapter 18 will be needed.
