Well................training is everything mate we all know that.

I'd be interested in observing your discussion with Lord Cable on this topic at the forthcoming electrical event in Manchester.

i must say 44allan you seem in the minority for using black as neutral..........

someone should do a forum poll , i bet at least 70% use grey for neutral.

Good call mate but I bet it's a majority of 'domestic' sparks your looking at and 'younger' guys(since the colour change) who can't remember red/yellow and blue as the 3 live/line colours and black as neutral?

edit
Or guys that have never worked on 3 phase even !

Just curl yer top lip at them mate, they'll be running for cover!
100ohms on TT?!?!?! That'll be far too technical for them, if I remember right from last year, they were just spouting answers to school boy questions. It was pathetic!
