Anyone else worry that those two guys were going to somehow trip and fall in while testing the voltage with that live wire?

My intrusive thoughts were actually saying to push them in the water, and then say bro, it's a prank.

It's so obvious how little the reporter understands how electricity works, lmao.

Yesterday our 7yo daughter was climbing out of the pool and grabbed the fence to pull herself up. She started yelling that she couldn't move her arm - we assumed it has jammed. Very quickly it became clear there was a current leak somewhere though thankfully not enough to hurt her for more than a few minutes afterwards. Pretty scary stuff - we'll be getting an electrician to sort it out asap. Take care folks and cheers from a very hot and sunny Sydney, Aust - Dave

Any metal fencing within 10 feet of a pool must be bonded to the same bonding grid you run around the pool, I have a playlist for pool bonding with a number of videos that I give to people doing pool work all the time, sometimes I’m doing the work sometimes they are doing the work sometimes I send them these videos to show what can happen and how deadly it can be like to your daughter Glad she’s OK

@@shockingguy Thanks mate. We had it sorted and since then our daughter has become a supercharged swimmer! Maybe the shock was the trick! Seriously - I remember being quite scared at the time and thankfully she's OK. No doubt you've seen some shockers (no pun intended). Cheers from Sydney - Dave

Guys, imagine if he would trip and fall into the pool while he was testing that device 🤦🏽‍♂️

I can't imagine walking that thing around your pool or a lake every time you get in.

If it saves my child’s life I’ll walk all day long….

Earthing potential...ground the pool metal work properly and use earth leakage circuit protection...it’s not always about shorting.

That's why the grounding and bonding of a pool along with GFCI breakers for the pump circuits is required by the NEC. Proper bonding and grounding ensures there is no voltage difference in any part of the pool or pool accessories such as diving boards, while GFCI breakers are designed to trip when leakage current to ground exceeds 6 milliamps. Together they form a safeguard against electrocution hazards. Unfortunately many existing pools were installed either by DIY'ers unfamiliar with the requirements, and older equipment will be less safe than modern equipment built to the latest safety standards.

Also, another big reason for voltage in the water is b/c as we colonize more and more, the electric company has to send more electricity down its lines. As they send more, the transformers and lines can overload causing surges. Qhen the surge comes, it will most likely hit the ground wire. Now, from that grounding wire, the electricity will back-feed back to the light, and every year, more and more people are DIYing their pool lights and instead of running one continuous line from the pool light to the GFCI then to the pool switch, people are dropping the pool level, cutting the line, splicing it below water level, then dipping it into epoxy believing it to be safe. Over time, the epoxy wears away, leaving a live wire in the pool. Or if you don't have a GFCI, the electricity coming from the surge on the ground might arc to the positive wire effectively leading the surge right into rhe pool. It's NEC (National Electric Code) to have one continuous line from the pool light to the GFCI. Also, your GFCI MUST BE Weather Resistant and must be the suitable amperage for your pool light. Also make sure everything is properly bonded and grounded (Different things)

We have observed a huge uptick in power issues. Generally, absence of GFCI breakers. Lack of equipment bonding.

OH MY GOD YOU KILLED THE BUG WITH THE VOLTAGE AT 3:44

excellent invention. price has no bearing on ur familys safety....

When we were kids we just are not going to the pool until the filter was off and we didn’t have any lights so we were never in danger of being shocked I think everyone else should follow what we did

The way he uses the word "voltage "is kinda funny....

Umm... I'm in South Africa. We have lots of pools around. Can't say I've heard of swimming pool electrocutions happening here. Neutral faults causing shocks on taps yes but that's a whole different story. Insulated pumps. 12v pool lights. RCDs. Why are there still properties around without RCD protection? Someone getting a shock like that indicates no RCD.

It glows in the dark

Just happen to me right now

Hold up wouldn't the electricity just ground out to any one of those metal contacts? If not then someone explain to me how a loose wire in water somewhere would cause you to get shoked when you touch a grounding surface. If the water isn't salty enough to conduct the current then you won't get shocked in the first place, if it's salty enough then it would ground out to any ground surfaces. What's likely happening is that the person touches a metal drain that is connected to electricity but isn't grounded, and then they touch a ground at the same time completing a much less resistant circuit than the water. Am I completely wrong? Someone explain

why do they use mains voltage in pools wtf, you only need led lights, run them from a isolated 12v supply

what about lake?

They can be now, only 12v with LEDs. But the typical pool light is 120v, normal wall voltage. It requires you use a special dedicated outlet that cuts off before you get a deadly shock. If you don't have a special outlet, that's DANGEROUS.

One more reason not to have a back yard pool.
