This chapter does not replace existing safety standards embodied in electrical codes. Under this chapter, testing is intended to determine:

1. (1) The presence and amount of any stray current or stray voltage within the dairy;
2. (2) The sources of any stray current or voltage detected; and
3. (3) The percent of contribution from the utility side and the dairy side of the dairy service entrance to the total stray voltage or stray current measured on the dairy.
