I work for a housing association where i have to conduct EICR‘s then conduct remedial repairs until a satisfactory report can be issued.

while inspecting bin store lights (fed by 1.5 3 core SWA) 1.56 was the ZS on initial inspection.
The swa outer was not earthed at either end.
now i have completed the repairs (earthed at both ends) the R1+R2 and ZS have obviously gone down.
i now get a ZS of 1.25 ohms.

which value should be recorded on the report?
