    I thought that the NICEIC preferred/allowed Calculated Zs on lighting circuits, elsewhere it should be measured. If I calculate I just make a note on the certificate as to which results were recorded by calculation. R1+R2/R1+RN before IR but my guess is Cory knows that and was testing the audience...... Excellent video as always. Edit* That Metrel is a beast of a machine....

    I think it’s generally preferred to calculate it as much as possible, to minimise the risk of working on a live circuit, therefore fused Spurs, isolator switches e.t.c would be included too. The only one really you can do it safely on is socket outlets

    Actually curious, measurement of ZE is with earth neutral connected at the board hence 0.3 reading right? But the diagram shows minus the neutral, would show earth electrode alone, typical result 20 -200ohm, which not likely to trip a breaker on earth fault.?

    He might have had the neutral connected, but the test itself doesn’t include the resistance of the neutral conductor. What you mentioned about an earth electrode having a higher resitance, that is when RCDs would be used for fault protection rather than additional protection

    Z loop (ZL-PE) is not a non-trip test, it is a high current 2 lead test which produces around 6A of test current. The green lead is not required to be connected at all, I think you are getting confused with Zs rcd, this is a 3 lead non-trip test

  • @rattlehead85

    @rattlehead85

    3 жыл бұрын

    Yes you should do the continuity test first to confirm the integrity of the conductors before going onto I.R tests. Doing the I.R first could give you acceptable readings when in fact you have a break in the cable which an IR test cannot detect unless the cables are shorted out or insulation damaged.
