I've felt stray voltage before. Grabbing stallwork and steel curb at same time. Just a very gentle tingling. This was from a fencer in the dairy.Has anyone tested or found steel work in the parlour not a zero (not earthed properly), so if the cows touch it they may well feel a small shock?
This voltage will not be detected by anyone else in the parlour ............
Thanks ...........
Yep, have found a couple of stray shocks on pipework, cows don't appreciate it much, and the SCC goes ballistic.. in my experience anyway.Has anyone tested or found steel work in the parlour not a zero (not earthed properly), so if the cows touch it they may well feel a small shock?

Ended up crawling around touching the end of my tongue to all the bars like a rabid dog and found out which (not recommended practice) bar had the tingle it was a failing earth on the milk lift pump and then an energiser at another place.
Next time I'd use a multimeter and an electric fence reel as an earth wire I think.
Got a man size shock yesterday that would have made a better clip, 10.6kv.Just occasionally, only a video clip will suffice......
