That’s for over current protective device disconnection not RCDs.Ok so what about table 41.1 TT?
Mmmm not sure now you ask!do you mean a housing association
Yes thats fine so I am testing socket and get Zs of 11.75, compliant or no? (RFC 32A)That’s for over current protective device disconnection
You will usually get higher Zs values ok a TT than a T-N system. What is the Ra valie?Yes thats fine so I am testing socket and get Zs of 11.75, compliant or no? (RFC 32A)
Did not test Ra, just wanted to change sockets and get council to check basically.the Ra
If it is anything like the rods I have measured the last few weeks then the readings will be much higher than normal.What is the Ra valie?
Wrong..... if you look below table 41.1, it specifically mentions RCDs.That’s for over current protective device disconnection not RCDs.
But if you rely on an RCD for fault protection you must ensure the fault currents are significantly higher than the rated residual current of the RCD.Wrong..... if you look below table 41.1, it specifically mentions RCDs.
Using a 30mA RCD for earth fault protection then your maximum permitted Zs is 1667 ohms.Ok so still, 11.7 ohms Zs on RFC any thoughts? 60898 MCB 32a B
