From the code breakers book,which is a good buy,no mention of the 1667 ohm readings,my thinking if it don’t comply to the Zs measurements,then it don’t comply.
No more sticking a Rcd on that circuit,that’s if anybody does,to protect it .

Regs says 1667 ohms. So no code for high Zs because the regs says it’s ok with RCD protection?
Plenty of places around the country with high Zs readings have RCD protection to get round it. Just a thought at looking at it from the other direction, I could very well be wrong.
 
Question

Why is the earth fault loop so high

Answer

Who cares just stick an rcd on it

Not really a great diagnosis or solution imo
