Electromagnetic Fields ~ EMF Meters

 

   
 
EMF is the field of force associated with electric charge in motion, having both electric and magnetic components and containing a definite amount of electromagnetic energy.

From Wikipedia

"The electromagnetic field is a physical influence (more precisely, a field) that permeates through all of space and which arises from charged objects and describes one of the four fundamental forces of nature - electromagnetism. It can be viewed as the combination of an electric field and a magnetic field. The electric field is produced by non-moving charges, the magnetic field by moving charges (currents), these two often described as the sources of the field. The way in which charges and currents interact with the electromagnetic field is dictated by Maxwell's equations and the Lorentz Force Law."

In our daily life we encounter electromagnetic radiation or electromagnetic fields, commonly referred to as EMF. The Electro Magnetic Field is found anywhere that electricity is in use or near any object that has an electric charge. EMFs are invisible lines of force that surround all electrical devices (appliances, computers, televisions, broadcasting antennas, power lines, rushing water, etc.) and wiring. Any time an electric current runs through a wire or an appliance, it produces an EMF. Electromagnetic radiation from Extremely Low Frequency (ELF), Radio Frequency (RF), and Microwave Frequency emissions. 

One should also consider that the human body is a complex energy field that is constantly changing, also called Elector Magnetic Fields. Science has proven that everything and everyone has a certain vibration or energy field.  Through experimentation we have learned that different people emit different levels.  While some register very high with the various meters, most do not.  When establishing the baseline readings, include a reading on the investigators.

As related to researching the paranormal, general consensus is that the fields are disputed when ghosts or spirits are in the area. While we cannot prove that ghosts cause EMF radiation, we have found where hauntings occur, we also document higher EMF readings.  A field generated by a combination of electric and magnetic energy that radiates from radio and light waves to gamma and cosmic rays. It is believed that a ghost or spirit may use or manipulate these fields to manifest or to move items in our physical world.

Justin at Ghost Gadgets presents some valuable information concerning EMF and other valuable technical information.

Cell Sensor Image The Cell Sensor EMF meter has a base unit with a small probe that can be attached. When the probe detects EMFs the base unit will sound an audible alarm, the red portion of the meter will flash and the needle will register the amount of milligauss detected.

To date GHG has not had much success with the Cell Sensor meter.  When the other three meters are displaying high readings, this model has not responded.

 

The Gauss Master A higher level than the E.L.F. Zone as to sensitivity, this  meter registers changes with a needle and an audible tone. An to read gauge, an audio signal and auto shut-off make it simple to use.  Hand-held, light-weight and durable, with two easy to read scales. 

The Gauss Master requires hands on, although on several occasions with the meter in the case or sitting idle has registered on it's on.  Of the meters GHG uses this one is a favorite.  Some units have a back light, others do not.

Digital Gaussmeter Gauss Master EMF Meter, a single axis meter, again a hands on unit. This meter must be rotated during use to find the area of the magnetic field being measured to acquire proper readings for situations needing high resolution measurements of AC magnetic fields. Large LCD display is easy to read in lighted situations.  A pen light/flash light will be necessary if the area is dark.
The TriField Natural EM Meter was designed to do field measurements for special research. It detects changes in extremely weak static electric and magnetic fields, and signals with both a tone and the movement of a needle-type gauge if either the electric or magnetic field changes from previous levels.

This meter offers magnetic, electric, and radio/microwave detection in one package. This enables you to filter out false EMF levels from normal sources. The TriField is extremely sensitive to movement and vibration. This unit can be set and placed in an area without supervision.  The tone change will alert to a possible disturbance. 

The EMF meter is a tool to be used in conjunction with other investigation tools.  The EMF meter alone does not indicate paranormal activity.

GHG suggests that reading with the EMF Meters be taken before an investigation, note the baseline readings.  Mark the area that are influenced by an obvious or logical reason.

The basic compass - a simple device said to react to abrupt changes or fluctuations in the magnetic energy field of the location. A spinning compass needle is said to reflect that something unusual is happening with the magnetic field.

While we must admit the compass has not reacted to energy changes for GHG, we can determine the direction for our notes.

 

Side Note: The moon has many effects on our electromagnetic fields which even affects our ocean tides.  This happens more prevalently during a full or new moon phase.  Influences have been noted and documented that within a 3 day range,  before or after a full/new moon phase may affect electromagnetic fields which in turn affect paranormal activity and the probability of higher positive results.  Consensus is that Ghosts/Spirits may use the normal electrical sources such as electrical appliances and batteries to gain energy - on days when the air charged with excess energy due to a solar storm or flare, they may actually have a surplus of energy to tap into.
