Modern volt meters are not a good choice. All you need is to pick
up some induction and you get a reading, even on a totally deal line.
An old analog volt meter may help, but I have to agree with many of

knowledgeable working on it and not the average homeowner as there are
too many possible little known dangerous situations.
