In spite of the above definitions, the term "stray voltage" continues to be used by both utility workers and the general public for "all" occurrences of unwanted excess electricity. For example, at the annual "Jodie S. Lane Stray Voltage Detection, Mitigation & Prevention Conference", held at the Con Edison headquarters in New York City in April 2009, which attracted the presidents of most major utilities from throughout the United States and Canada, the utility leaders continued to use "stray voltage" for all occurrences of unwanted excess electricity. The term "contact voltage" was used only once, possibly because "contact voltage" is generally the fault of the supply, network or installation company. Few companies are willing to openly discuss faults of theirs, let alone ones as life-threatening. It would seem that "stray voltage" is now the common term for all unwanted voltage leakage as it categorises the fault as part of normal operation, therein limiting liability.
