Abstract
A case for enclosing an electric device, such as a personal voltage detector is provided. Embodiments of the case can increase safety and convenience to wearers operating near high-voltage electric lines, and combine (i) the ability to wear the case in either an open or closed position around a user's neck, (ii) the ability to adjust the position of the case, when either open or closed, to an appropriate mid-chest or mid-torso position, (iii) the ability to use the device when the case is open and worn around a user's neck and the device is inside the case, and (iv) an electrically shielded enclosure. When closed, the case can disable the electric device, allowing the device to be always on.
