Section 20:10:39:57 - Determination of any contributions to stray current or voltage for single phase dairies

The utility contribution to cow contact voltage or cow contact current is determined using the following formulas:

(1) Utility contribution to cow contact voltage = ((Vp48 - Vp Half) / (Vp Full - Vp Half)) x (Vcc Full - Vcc Half) + Vcc HALF; or
(2) Utility contribution to cow contact current = ((Vp48 - Vp HALF) / (Vp FULL - Vp HALF)) x (Ice FULL - Ice Half) + Ice HALF.

The values determined are compared to the preventive action level.
