Don't quibble with just me Mark. NEMA recognizes "phantom" as a term
too: G


Jeff, in my humble opinion the term "phantom voltage" is not applicable in
this case. NEMA and others use it to refer to a capacitively induced
voltage into an open circuit and measured by a high-impedance meter. In
this case, the voltage is not a phantom but is a real voltage in a circuit
with high resistance (due to a bad connection).
