Discuss what causes earth leakage? in the Australia area at ElectriciansForums.net

pity we can't harness the power. would beat sunshine panels hands down.
 
suppy is TN-S, and it was measured using an earth leakage clamp meter.
since looking at the lights i've been told theres more lights and sockets that have been spurred off the downstairs lighting circuit in another part of the house, so when i go back i'm fairly confident I'll find the problem.
 
think it's electron confusion as the E and N are connected together at the head, the poor little buggers don't know which route to take.
 
they were fine when they were using a map and compass, but now they've been supplied with a sat.nav. that's what's buggered the poor little sods. they want to take the neutral path, but the sat.nav. directs them down the earth path, even though it's clearly marked as " no through road for electrons".
