Ze(L to L or L to N) -Knob 1 L-L/L-N, knob 2- Z,test leads plug in - red and blue on tester.PSCC will...
If you want for the regs on that conduit, look for conduit support spacings, looks like you have about 2 m run with no supports(no compliant), then white pvc is not good in sunlight(not sure about regs on this one), and then I see this conduit being a good support for some numpty doing pullups.
thanks for reply, i dont think it is PILC, there is no lead sheath, probably it is more like split concentric as you say becouse of the fine copper strands visible on the sheath, I promise to do pics tomorrow.
I am seeing it coming from the sheath at the intake, which is a supply for them containers only, nothing else. It comes in the made for that purppose pillar/box 15 m away from the main container where the main board will be. Not sure about the incoming cable, the only thing I good see that it...

Thanks Marvo, I understand that, its just I want someone to tell me that TN-C-S earthing comes from sheathing too sometimes,cos I never come acros, normaly it is split at the head, which is not the case here. thanks
I know that, if that is TN-C-S,( bearing in mind lost neutral and stuff)then I need to bang more rods in, and make the TT better then it is , but I want to be 100% sure that it is, thanks.
Hello, I wonder if there is anyone here to help me out. Thanks in advance for the help.
