So the voltage drops when you plug into an extension lead connected direct to a DNO meter?
Who has given you permission to undertake something so reckless?
Are you actually a competent electrician?
 
A second glance tells me the earth is not connected, the meter terminal cover is missing and there is zero circuit protection. If you are are not an electrician then you are for want of better words stupid. If you claim to be an electrician then you are severely lacking in intelligence and competence with absolutely no regard for anyone's safety.
 
Come on OP, give us some more info. You can hardly say it's a complete post with only 2 words in it!
 
Well, that's a difficult one to answer.

If you guys are still alive then give us a bit more of an indication as to what you would like to know?
 
1 post. 2 words. Been on forum at least twice since but no reply.

Troll or time waster.
 
What's happening? Critical assessment here: either you are a complete idiot and the video is you actually filming yourself, OR you are a complete idiot posting crap on this site, the takeaway? You are a complete idiot. Go on, ask another. By the way, this IS me being nice.
 
Looks like a high resistance joint somewhere, the voltage plummeting when a load is applied. Why you would test that by connecting a shabby extension lead directly to the meter I'm not sure.
 
I think it's a troll, seeing how many sad people he can get to comment on his silly post.
At the moment I have posted twice which means I am winning in the sad stakes.

Totally a troll, but a particularly thick one as this site has no bot or algorithm that would allow his video to go viral, needs to be on a wider platform, so a very very thick troll, or at least a masochistic one.
