volt sticks

[gas man]

Hi folks,i Admin over at the plumbing forum,quick question regarding volt sticks,in this case a Fluke brand,now i fault find boilers so am very conversant with a multi meter ,however i use a volt stick to check boiler cases and pipework,on checking the spec on the fluke they go down to 100v,as we know it takes less than 100v to kill you so to my mind volt sticks for what i intend to use one for are pointless,how could i safely test pipework or metal work ?

If you come up with a mig welding hamster for the next video, I think even @telectrix would step down from the throne! (Taking a chance there Tel!)

How can a reversed L & N make a pipe under the sink live, and what has that to do with Volt Sticks? Or was he holding something else that was live and was shocked when making contact with the earthed pipe? In which case, ditto?

Yes very good Lucien I was just testing to see if people are really reading this or on automatic, well done I am very pleased with you. Of course I meant L - E
