Hello,
I have following scenario, 20A circuit breaker in the CU. 3 x 2.5 SWA cable feed to a garden shed CU. In the shed CU I have 0.69 ohm on the income cable. On the shed are two 16A radial circuits of socket outlet. When I do Ze on the sockets , I get 2.9 ohms.
The radial circuits have 2.5mm2 flat cable no longer than 5m from the shed CU.
Any idea why is the reading so high please?
 
In the grand tradition of shed-threads......Somebodies got to suggest TT-ing it. I volunteer.

TT the b****r.

It wasn't meant to be anything special Tel, just coincidence that I wired a shed today, so thought I'd add a little bit of boring detail. Must say the surface clipping was lovely though. :D
