Bruce my next door neighbor had stray voltage trouble for almost five years. It would be between 3 and 15 volts. His cows would not come in his parlor at times. He had severe spikes of mastitis. He rewired the parlor and installed filters and ground loops and still he had low voltage. The electric company came out and work with him on it and they were stumped too. They unhooked the transformer at the pole and there was still stray voltage. About 4 and half years of fighting this really aged this fellow. HE had one of the top herds around. Good care and HIGH production numbers. It really bothered him. He even sent his top cows to his brothers farm to get them away form the issue.
Finally they replaced the cross country power line poles and transmission transformers. His stray voltage went away. They found a bad ground on a transmission transformer 1 1/2 miles away from his parlor. Two other farms between him and the transformer did not have the voltage. No one could ever figure that out.
Bruce I sure would not let the government block me protecting my system from their voltage uses. I would go to my own supply before I would allow that.
I have a bin site that the electric company wanted $15K to run the electric too. I bought a use military generator for $4500. When you figure the lack of a minimum bill when there is zero electric need, the generated electric costs me HALF what the public power would be with the installation cost.

In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together.
