A non-contact voltmeter from Fluke has sparked interest due to its features, including NC voltage measurement, power quality analysis, and data logging capabilities. Users note that while it may not be highly accurate at 30V, its potential for improvement in the coming years is promising. Calibration techniques, such as how tightly the device is held, may affect its performance. The discussion also encourages sharing relevant papers or articles that explain the technology behind the device. Overall, the voltmeter presents intriguing possibilities for electrical testing.

TL;DR
I would not have believed this exists.

Interesting. I guess you have to calibrate how tightly you hold it... :wink:
 
Yes. Unexpected and remarkable. It might not be that easy to use, but wait 5 years and it might be improved.

No doubt there are paper or articles that describe how it works. If anyone know of such, please post a link.
 


There are comments from Fluke on the youtube site.
 

Thread 'Electric power distribution from powerplant to homes'

I am trying to understand how transferring electric from the powerplant to my house is more effective using high voltage. The suggested explanation that the current is equal to the power supply divided by the voltage, and hence higher voltage leads to lower current and as a result to a lower power loss on the conductives is very confusing me. I know that the current is determined by the voltage and the resistance, and not by a power capability - which defines a limit to the allowable...
