They have to expose the wires to measure voltage. Surely they would notice there are two wires under the insulation?!? Also the voltage would not drop to zero during the off phase. Notice that in the second diagram the ammeter surrounds both the plus and negative wire, so it registers nothing. That is what I pointed out the other day, and what all ammeter manuals show, including this one, on p. 4: http://www.industrial-needs.com/manual/manual-clamp-meter-pce-cd3.pdf I can't imagine how a person would fail to notice the clip is around two wires tucked together in the same insulation, since you have to strip off the insulation to measure voltage. After you strip it off, even if you somehow overlooked the fact that there are two wires, the two wires short out and burn the moment the gadget is switched to the pretend "off" phase. - Jed
