FREE Stray Voltage Online Video

The term stray voltage has been used for the past 40 years to describe a special case of voltage developed on the grounded neutral system of a farm. If this voltage reaches sufficient levels, animals coming into contact with grounded devices may receive a mild electrical shock that can cause a behavioral response. At voltage levels that are just perceptible to the animal, behaviors indicative of perception such as flinches may result with little change in normal routines. At higher levels avoidance behaviors may result.


The term stray voltage is often applied incorrectly to other electrical phenomena such as electric fields, magnetic fields and most recently electric current flowing in the earth. These phenomena are generally referred to as EMF or Electric and Magnetic Fields. The physiological interactions with these phenomena are different than the mild shock associated with stray voltage. For more information on EMF and other electrical exposures, go to the EMF Page.

We here at Mike Holt Enterprises, Inc. want to contribute to the information about this topic and have placed a free Video on our website that should help you better understand this phenomenon. To view the video, click on the following link or on the image above: http://www.mikeholt.com/strayVoltageVideo.php

Coming up, you will have the opportunity to see this application in a case study. I’m working on a stray voltage case (public swimming pool) and plan on video taping the investigation as well as the solution. I expect to have the DVD available (at cost plus shipping $15) in early September.
This DVD will be the first of its type in content and visuals from a real onsite case study. Stray voltage (actually neutral-earth-voltage – NEV) is a big problem and will become a bigger problem in the future.

  • Mike I was watching your excellent video on stray voltage when around the swimming pool part it stopped functioning. I also tried to down load the video but no luck.. How can get this video in its entirety. Thanks, Jerry Jerry A. Gioia Elect/Est/Planner IMAP Tel. 703-339-2211 Fax. 703-339-1510 GioiaGA@state.gov
