[QUOTE="InDaShop, post: 232596, member: 1295"] If you know the power source and you know it is "X" amps then you could check along the run and see if you get some amperage drop. As far as testing the water alone. I was taught when checking all of our Cattle Waterers that are electric and have electric heaters to use the back of the hand(palm up) and tap the surface of the water with your fingernails. If its hot you'll get the tinge and it will make your muscles contract and brake the plane. I'd like to know if there is something out there that you could use to test the water alone. A voltmeter dangled one probe in and the other on a know ground??? That should work right? [/QUOTE]
