College is drivin me mad at the mo! all this stupid key skills crap lol. For part of my communications coursework I have to do a report for electricians who dont know the 3 main (dead) tests you have to do after an installation.

Im aware of some of the tests but dont know exactly which order/ which is more important etc.

Is insulation resistance a definite and earth continuity? Is the other one continuity of the ring or R1 + R2 test? or Loop test or RCD test?!

No idea

And does anyone know where I can find out about the 3 main dead tests after an installation? They expect me to know exactly how to carry out the tests but we've barely been taught what a neutral is lol.

cheers guys any help appriciated

think of me as an 'alien' who knows nothing! :)
