OP
What is the test skt for ? Ze . What about testing ze of sub main as earth won't be connected .. Anything
Hi I=P/U,
This panel and it's fitting is almost certainly outside the scope of BS7671, and will more than likely have to be compliant with a totally different set of rules and regs, of which I am not privy to.

I assume there is someone working with you that IS experienced on PFS?
The test socket is for Ze and it's earth is connected to the main earth bar on the earth nest side.
When the earth bar link is removed only the Test socket earth is connected to the nest/s.
You should have access to the APEA Blue Book for Petrol Filling installations.
