Not for nothing, but if you don't know how to measure an AC voltage
with a meter, you probably shouldn't be messing with your house
wiring. Fire and electrocution can be pretty ugly.


Yea, I generally don't mess with A/C wiring, but I'm disconnecting the
fans until I can get an electrician.



Why are you doing this?

A disconnected wire must be properly secured - it could still be hot
under some circumstances!

p.s. "AC" means alternating current
"A/C" means air conditioning (in some circles)
