V-WATCH WARNING DISTANCES

Test Details

All of the warning distances are
shown on a 1 foot grid and all
distances are to scale.

The energized bar is 4 feet long
and 30 inches above the ground
on insulators. It is energized from
behind and the indicated voltage
is line to ground.

For this test, the V-Watch VW-20/VWP-20
was worn on the shirt front as pictured.
Warning distances will be reduced
slightly if it is worn on the belt and
will be reduced substantially if an
arm is extended toward the energized
source or if the user approaches the
energized source backwards.
