Advanced EMF Instrumentation Workshop 2022

You do not need to be a EMF specialist to attend this class. This is a class that teaches you how to apply advanced techniques to utilize advanced instrumentation not typically taught in other EMF courses you may have heard of.

Included in your workshop tuition, each student will learn to use an OWON SDS7102V 2 Channel 100 MHz Bandwidth Oscilloscope with battery and case, a PICO Scope, a Stetzer Ubiquitous filter (High Pass Filter) for detecting MEP/DE signals. Also, there is instruction in the use of the Extech Model 382252 Earth Resistance Tester for checking for Stray/Earth Voltage and Earth System Ground resistance with all the training to operate and create reports from the measurements made with these devices. There is also instruction in the use a Hantek brand amp probe with an oscilloscope. You obtain this equipment prior to class at your own expense and you will gain all the skills to run them. We provide the full list of equipment specs and sources to purchase them.

There will be a demonstration on the implementation a “Ground Antenna” to aid in improving ground systems and improving MEP/DE. This is a unique solution to some bad grounding system. We will show how to check Instrumentation for ground current and measure frequencies commonly found on the ground system.

There will be a live demo of the Blue Box and mitigation of wiring errors such as “Net Current”. There will be demonstrations of MEP/DE scenarios and MEP/DE filter comparisons against known MEP/DE Generators. There will be comparisons of various light bulbs, i.e., Fluorescents, LED’s and Incandescent for Current, Voltage Transients, and Light Spectrum.

There will be a live demo of a spectrum analyzer and how to identify power density from dB to μW/M². we will also do a field test of shielding paints and you can see real results of the shielding effectiveness on a spectrum analyzer.

Your tuition also includes full instruction materials and a series of books for the class including the full series of the Andrew MacAfee’s “Killing Current” series of 6 books, the Mike Holt Grounding and Bonding book and a copy of the NEC Code Book. All sessions will be recorded if you need a refresher of what was covered and need to replay any section of the course.

The daily schedule includes lectures, instrument demonstrations, group labs with recommended instrumentation techniques, interactive discussions of lab results and, finally, a full assessment of the course. Enrollment is open to anyone with an interest in fully understanding EMFs in the building environment. If you have a modest amount of practical experience in measuring EMFs in the past you will gain knowledge not available anywhere else.
