1. A shock detector comprising:

  • a housing having a first water electrode for immersing in a body of water and a second electrode;

    a processor for measuring a harmful electrical condition between said first water electrode and said second electrode in a region proximate the shock detector;

    an audible alarm for alerting a person to the existence of a harmful electrical condition in the body of water proximate the shock detector where the harmful electrical condition is such that it could injure or electrocute a person;

    a visual alarm for alerting a person to the existence of the harmful electrical condition in the body of water proximate the shock detector where the harmful electrical condition is such that it could injure or electrocute a person; and

    a transceiver on the shock detector for communication with a further shock detector located in a region in the body of water that does not contain the harmful electrical condition with said transceiver activating a visual alarm on the further shock detector but not the audible alarm on the further shock detector in response to the harmful electrical condition proximate the shock detector to thereby alert a person to the existence of a harmful electrical condition in the region proximate the shock detector but not in the region proximate the further shock detector.
