Why are you testing IR from one part of the leg to the other?
You only need to test from conductor to conductor
I think you have confused yourself with the testing. You haven't mentioned your R1&R2 and R1&RN, are you doing them?
The training provider you did the 2395 with should actually have suggested this for you.
None of the training you have done so far is the equivalent of a study and assessment on the wiring regulations.
The fuse is there simply to protect the cable to the appliance from the over-current likely to occur in a fault.

If you want to be recognised as an electrician you need to do the NVQ Level 3.
If you want to work as an electrician you should ask yourself if you know how to do it first?
