Hi everyone

Just looking at getting a seaward apollo 500 or 600 and noticed there is no 25A earth continuity test function ! has anyone had a go with one and do i need the 25A test function ?

cheers

It's 10 or more years since I did C&G PAT but I don't think its a requirement.

Even in the 2nd edition Code of Practice (2001), the requirement has been "Either of the following tests may be carried out..." before outlining the 'soft' test (20 mA - 200 mA) and the 'hard' test (1.5 x fuse rating, no greater than 25 A).
