Customer says she feels current in the water. I put my meter on faucet and outlet ground and I have 20volts. When I shut the breakers one at a time. One circuit kills the 20 volts. Now, I noticed the water heater had some pvc. If I rebond the copper water lines will this go away?
what kind of meter are you measuring with?
some DMM's have such a high ohm/volt ratio they will read static as if
it's real power.
one i use is a fluke 12.... it puts a 2k shunt across the circuit under test,
like a wiggie might do, and then reads the voltage.
20 volts, as in one hand in water, other on plumbing fixture grounded to a
different potential, is approaching levels where it can do real harm.
you most likely will be going hand to hand.
if you can feel it, it's probably not static.... this is one where full code
compliance is an absolute. time to find out where it's coming from.
a good circuit tracer that can inject a signal might be helpful, or it could
just make you crazy. :rant:
