Hi customer of mine currently has 2.5 ohms on a old lead sheaf, unfortunately its one like many where the braized earth has been cut off and a pipe clamp stuck on the sheaf, leading to the local networks to give their normal response- not our responsibility, can't be bothered, not enough profit in providing an actual service etc
My angle in this is 2.5 ohms a) suggests a fault somewhere at their end and b) if you have a fault between the service head and the street would it be enough to operate the ~600amp fuse on the network side, so yes they do have a responsibility to sort it.
Have told the client to ask for, in writing, the supply is safe but any other ideas or help in enticing them to do their job? For example are the any electric distro rules that specify the sheaf can only be TNS therefore require 0.8?
Thanks Ben
