Stray Voltage: Two Different Perspectives

 

Stray voltage has become a major concern, in recent years, to humans as well as dairy cows. The problem is that dairy farms have considerably different requirements than the general customer population. Meeting the farm criteria may become much too expensive (and unnecessary) for all classes of customer service. At this point in time, the utility industry is trying to install one standard for all their customer classes. The purpose this paper is to present the dairy farmer and the utility sides of the topic. This is done via authorship by a utility consultant and a dairy farmer. Ultimately, the purpose of the paper is to allow for both the utility and the dairy farmer to reach agreement over this long standing problem.
