Current in the water

Diane,
The link that shows the plumbing current: http://www.emfservices.com/ground.htm
The study that talks about "contact current" and childhood leukemia:
Google: Emf and Childhood Leukemia by Robert Syfers.
From researching environmental mitigation, I found "Ground Tracers" systems and support:
"The bio degradation of an organic soil contamination results in a local small increase in
ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY.  Google Ground Tracers for more info.
The following is from a webpage on EC/TDS meters. TDS meters are actually EC meters, they measure Electrical Conductivity of water. *I've been stymied trying to figure out HOW to test the water for current, and then I stumbled upon this meter and information. http://www.tdsmeter.com/faqs
What i got from this is that the higher levels of TDS (totally dissolved solids) the more elements in the water. Each element has a different charge, negative ions or positive. The companies who service/own the R/O water filters at krogers, uses a TDS/EC meter to tell them when they need to change the filters! So what this tells me, is that they use a certain level/parameter to guide them, possibly, the higher the reading might mean the more crap in the water and also, the higher the level of electrical conductivity is...meaning that contaminated water would have high levels of current.
What should the TDS level of my water be?
 Generally speaking, for drinking water, a lower level of TDS (purer water) is preferred.  The U.S. EPA, all U.S. states, the World Health Organization (WHO) and most nations put maximum limitations on TDS allowed in drinking water.  These limitations are typically 500 or 1000 ppm, but they do vary.  There is no known minimum.
This whole thing explains why my daughter was reacting to me running the sink faucet, even with filters on it. She would get nauseated if SHE ran the water....but even being in the kitchen if I was running water, made her feel woozy and ill. *When you put this information together with the study on CONTACT CURRENT IN THE BATHROOM,....and factor in additional current coming into the house via the city's water line...plus any other additional (unwanted) EMF's..its a recipe for disaster!
Blessings,
Lizzie

If your kitchen faucet is an "exposed style" unit, then it's easy
to measure the current. Just position a "clamp-around" amp-meter
on one of the metal faucet-connection tubes.

I used to get about one amp running through my kitchen faucet, but
only when the people in another unit ran their electric heater
(which also blew out their main fuses every week).

If your faucet has no exposed tubes or pipes, then look under the
sink. If necessary, make an access hole through the wall board,
under the sink. Or look in the basement, or under the building,
and use the amp-meter there -- or have someone to do it for you.
