CONTROL BOX

Conductive Fish Handling Gloves are 

worn over insulating gloves (top), Control 

box is worn on the adjustable chest 

harness (middle) or a belt (bottom).

The equipment consists of 
the control box (A), a pair of 
conductive fish handling gloves 
(B), a pair of rubber insulating 
gloves (C), a wire lead as-
sembly (D), a carry case (not 
shown), arm bands (E), an ad-
justable chest harness (F), and 
the user’s manual and battery 
charger (also not shown).

The lightweight, water resistant 
control box can be worn on the 
chest harness (or alternately, 
clipped on a belt) and contains 
rechargeable batteries, making 
the device fully portable.

Two sets of gloves must be 
worn when operating the Elec-
tric Fish Handling Gloves

tm

 Sys-

tem.  The pair of rubber Insulat-
ing Gloves protects the handler 
from the electric current, and 
is worn under the pair of Fish 
Handling Gloves.  The conduc-
tive Fish Handling Gloves are 
worn over the rubber gloves 
and are connected to the Con-
trol Box with the snaps on the 
Wire Leads.  One glove acts as 
the negative electrode (cath-
ode) and the other is the pos-
itive electrode (anode).  Once 
turned on, the circuit is com-
pleted when a conductive item 
(fish) is contacted by each of 
the fish handling gloves simul-
taneously.
