hi,
Popped round in laws house last night as they were having power loss issues. As I pulled up noticed the utility guys on their road hard at work sorting it out. So out of curiosity I thought I'd check the voltage readings as they had power but you could tell the voltage was low.
I was getting about 90v between live and neutral,
90v between neutral and earth
and no reading between live and earth
the property is down a country lane but new pme supply installed within the last couple of years. New Cable installed down the length of the lane.
1st they were looking at the transformer located on a pole then moved there attention to what i presume must have been a joint further down the road.
my feeble brain is trying to figure out what would cause those readings? is it broken earth or neutral?
cheers
