    Advice/opinions on this setup

    need to purchase a tester, opinions on buying second hand.

    I got a Megger 1552 of ebay for £250, didnt come calibrated but at the time it was all i could afford. Had it over 18 months now, think i got lucky with a decent seller. When i originally took it in for calibration the guys said it seemed id dropped on a decent meter. I will upgrade as and when...

    Seperate RCD enclosure

    Seperate RCD enclosure

    Ive recently been out to look at a kitchen refurb, where a split load mem memera 200 consumer unit is installed. The ring final circuit supplying the kitchen has 30mA RCD protection, no issues here. My issue is the oven supply. The OCPD is a 32a cartridge fuse which is on the non RCD side of the...

    EICR and subsequent remedial work

    rn - rn reading was also high and i had an open circuit r2 - r2. This is the only ring final circuit in the house and from which i was proposing to install additional sockets as part of the kitchen refurb.

    EICR and subsequent remedial work

    Some of the pictures may be difficult to make out, all but one upstairs light which were class 1 fittings did not have a cpc. A 2 core flex had been taken to each from, a block of connectors where there was actually a cpc present! In another of the pics the cpc is actually used as a strapper...
