My choise

Raining here we are haveing trouble pushing electric.
got that wire with the barbs an the electric keeps jumping out of the barbs.

Kept smelling something got to looking around there's dead electric ever where?

have a goo"N"

Don't you know that you always have to make sure that the barbs are all pointing up?

The electricity will just fall out on the ground if ya point 'em down.

Yep, cabin fever for sure. :>)

They both work on the fact that any conductor carrying current will be surrounded by magnetic lines of flux and the strength of his flux will be proportional to the strength of the current. Any coil of wire placed into this flux field will have a voltage induced into it

So the meters are measuring the induced voltage which is proportional to the current in the wire you are measuring and the meters scale is calibrated in Amps.

Yeah, I'm kind of familiar with those load testers; just kind of a shunted ampmeter, aren't they?

Any time you have current moving in a conductor it sets up a magnetic field about that conductor, but I don't know if just bringing a wire to potential and then taking it away again would cause any actual electron movement since there is no discharge? Hence, no field?

Dunno, have to ask the big boys.

Have a good one

Wife about had to tie me down with a log chain. :>)
