Popis: THE electrical resistance of two components of a milking system were measured for configurations simulating both high and low milk pipelines. Resistance of the milk hose from the milk receiver to the machine claw during milking was found to be inversely proportional to the milk flow rate. Minimum values measured were 79.9 and 30.3 kohm for high and low lines respectively. On the average, the minimum value was 3.7 times a theoretical full hose value. Minimum resistance from the claw through the cow to the floor was 3 kohm. Estimated voltages across this system required to obtain perception level currents through the cow would be in the range of 50 Vac for the high line and 25 Vac for the low line.
