I'm just wanting to find out, what are your testing methods, as i dont believe that everyone who tests, does it in the correct order. So then...... coff up and tell us what you miss out and what you do first step by step ;) do you have any habits, tips n tricks.....

voltage drop
 
Amazing how no one has mentioned continuity of CPC's INCLUDING main & supp bonding!

Mind you, if its an upgrade or the like, then i dont bother with main bonding. Pain in the --- most times to get out the wander lead:D

For a PIR i tend to do INS res tests first because this will (hopefully) confirm that everything is disconnected and there are no issues with circuits.

Then i move onto cpc continuity etc etc.

My bad.
