There is a lot of controversy when we consider the most popular method of measuring local vibrations to estimate danger on hand tools operators. This is because of commonly used adapter that represents many faults, from which the most significant are: strong impact of grip and placing adapter between a hand and a tool handle. What we propose in this article is a measurement system including a band placed on a wrist. This solution highly eliminates defects mentioned above, but seems to be too trivial to maintain high quality of measuring process. The purpose of this article is to estimate the quality of this new solution in respect of some basic categories in which measurement errors occur.
