Configuring the Body Voltage Meter to Measure AC Voltage
- Rotate the “
Main Selection Dial
” from “
OFF
” to the AC Voltage Function “
V
”
* Note:
This meter is auto ranging and will automatically select the appropriate Voltage Range.
“
Autorange
” will appear on the bottom of the LCD display. If a manual range is desired, press the
range button as necessary. “
Autorange
” will no longer appear on the LCD.
Measuring Procedure
- Ensure the equipment is assembled correctly and connected to a proper ground
- Ensure the conditions for proper measuring are met
- Ensure the Body Voltage Meter is configured correctly and the proper function and range is selected
-
The person to be measured sits or lies in the position where the body voltage is to be measured
- The person should grip the hand probe snugly in one hand and remain still
- Record the body voltage measurements for future evaluation
Conditions for Proper Measuring
- Plug in all power cords from devices, appliances or extension cords that are normally connected to
outlets in the area of measurement (Including rooms beside, above and below area of investigation)
- Other people in the immediate area can influence the measurement. They should keep a minimum
distance of 5 feet
- The person to be measured should not have direct contact to the black grounding wire, the Body
Voltage Meter or any other connection to ground including an earthing pad
-
The measurement is “position-sensitive” and will vary from place to place and with the position of
the measurement subject
Techniques for Reducing Body Voltage
- Begin with unplugging power cords from devices, appliances or extension cords that are normally
connected to outlets in the area of measurement, including rooms beside, above and below area of
investigation
- If there is still a significant body voltage reading then the source is from the electrical wiring in the
walls, ceiling and floors or power lines external to the building
- Temporarily shut off branch circuit breakers that supply power to the room under investigation,
including rooms beside, above and below area of investigation
Caution!
If affected circuits are critical and power a refrigerator, furnace, septic pump, life
support systems, smoke or carbon monoxide detectors and so on, do not turn them off!
If the
branch circuit is non-critical, one can simply turn it off via the circuit breaker or have a
installed on the circuit. Please consult with a licensed electrician for proper
installation.
