Hi guys me again still learning at 54.
Just doing some testing at home to get my head around things
Testing end to end of rfc and getting different readings on end to end of phase and end to end of neutrals.
Am I correct to be thinking a bad connection on an outlet somewhere as rfc wired in 2.5 t&e pvc so both phase and neutral both same csa ?

What sort of a difference are you getting? could be a week croc clip connection.
 
So am I correct to be thinking will be a bad connection ?
So nothing else can make it have a difference between the two other than bad connection or damaged cable ?
 
it's not a huge difference. maybe 1 loose connection on a neutral somewhere. what's the r2? End- ennd cpc)
 
With an r2 of 0.84 that would imply that the neutral reading you got was correct (0.84 / 1.66 = 0.5). So I'd be looking at a fault in the line conductor, most likely a loose connection in one of the accessories.
