Take this advice as constructive Dave but headlining a thread with such a poor spelling mistake of a word that should be etched into your head from college makes you look unproffesional as well as other spelling errors.Come on guys..

Yes lol... wasn't a dig just advice, i wouldn't put my money in a bank that couldn't spell 'Finance' as you have to question their abilities when they can't do basic English and especially a word that is strongly linked to their proffesion...Im a spark not a English teacher.. My spelling is that terrible that even my smell checker doesn't pick up on my mistakes (See what i did there)
How can you call yourself a 'professional' when you spell it like that? :blush5:Take this advice as constructive Dave but headlining a thread with such a poor spelling mistake of a word that should be etched into your head from college makes you look unproffesional as well as other spelling errors.
Edit and change to save face if i was you
Nutural - Neutral
I reckon 'Bob from the pub' would just do a 'bang test', discover the RCDs keep tripping, turn the lights off so they don't trip while he shows the customer, quickly take the money and run away, then switch his phone off.It will catch out electricians at times, but not bob from the pub, he will change the board and not test it, infact there could be 6 lives and 3 neutrals and he won't care, not many sparks will get caught out, as they usually do a test and inspection first then advise the customer on a board change and the borrowed neutral would have been picked up, definately very dangerous IMO.
well....if you bother to IR test between the neutrals....you should find it...if its there if course...Come on guys.. Who's been caught out by one.. Is it bad practice that it hasn't been picked up proir to changing a board?
@Imago ... i contradict your theme and will suggest it is a very dangerous set-up especially in unsuspecting circuits as the correct isolation and testing sequence may not consider a borrowed neutral been off load, then while your working in it the load is switched on (of another circuit) and although you have tested correctly you find yourself in a potentially dangerous situe'.
To pass this off as having a great mythical status is complacent at the very least and full respect and caution should always be given to the possibility of a borrowed neutral been energised during your works (post isolation and testing procedures).

In other words on here you'll just get a jibe about it but to a customer it could be what decides if you get the job or not, or the impression you give about your company.

Caught red-handed :bomb2:...... we all do it but was with respect to the word neutral a deeply embedded word in our trade
Well spotted or did i put it there on purpose .....No! i won't get away with that one will i lol..
