    Zs values recorded results.

    Evening everyone, I was taught when carrying out Zs testing to test both L-PE and L-N and record the highest result of the two tests for my Zs column. However, speaking with a friend he informed me that this is wrong as Zs = Ze + (R1+R2) and not (R1 + RN) which is right and never crossed my...

    UK What’s the correct way to enter RCD’s on a split load board on a schedule of test results?

    Would entering each RCD as a line on the schedule of test results be correct? If so, what would be entered in boxes such as Zs?

    EICR test results

    I have reason to doubt that any inspection or testing was done before an EICR was issued. The test results on the EICR are identical to those on an EIC issued a year previously. Is this likely, or would you expect some values to differ slightly? Many thanks.

    EICR test results schedule

    This is slightly pedantic, so right up my street. I'm filling out an EICR. The sockets are wired in 2.5 (apart from some in the kitchen that have been wired in 1mm 3 core and earth. Don't ask...) with a 30 amp 3036 as ocpd. Forgetting the obvious C2's, the question I have is regarding the...

    Type 'A' RCD test results

    I just installed my first type 'A' RCD. When I tested it, I was amazed by the disconnection time. It was 148ms @ 1IΔn. Okay this is less than the required 300ms, and I know I take the 5IΔn for the report, but even so, this seems high to me. Is this correct for Type A RCD, they are slower to...
