  • Patent number: 11579174
    Abstract: An energy detection warning device includes a housing. An electronic indication component is disposed within the housing. One or more sensors are disposed within the housing and are configured to detect an energized conductor present within a particular proximity of a location of the energy detection warning device, and detect a direction in which the energized conductor is located with respect to the location of the energy detection warning device. The direction is an approximate direction. The device also includes a microcontroller configured to: receive input from the one or more sensors, and actuate the electronic indication component, in response to receipt of the input, to indicate the direction in which the energized conductor is located with respect to the location of the energy detection warning device.
