Discuss What kind of earthing is this? TN-S? in the DIY Electrical Advice area at ElectriciansForums.net

looks like it to me to be honest, at least the original braid is in place, I have seen bonding clamps around the sheath many times and the ZE reading poor, have you tested this out of interest to see what the main reading is?
 
Thanks folks!

@MDJ How do I test this? i.e. what am I measuring for/setting on the multimeter?
A multi meter not the right bit of kit for this, you are looking for a reading in Ohms and via a multifunction tester or loop impedance tester, I have also just realised this is the DIY forum so apologies for my original reply.
