distance. The reverse is also true; the detector may
alarm due to the very close proximity of low voltage
when the user walks past a typical factory machine
such as a running drill press, an office computer
terminal or a desk lamp. It may even alarm if it is
placed up against a typical 120 volt wall outlet.
Electrically conductive objects located underneath
power lines can appear to be live. A metal fence
or a growing hedge can cause a distortion of the
electric field under these lines and result in high
electric field strength near the ground. The V-Watch
Personal Voltage Detector will provide an early
warning of high electric
fields, but not all fields
are directly caused
by nearby
energized objects.
To prevent the
detector from
issuing too many
false alarms, it
should not be
used or worn
in typical office
or factory
environments where
all the equipment is low voltage and there
is no danger of contacting energized high
voltage conductors.
