    Am2 exam live testing part need some help please!

    So since there is a RCD in the workshop board. But, on the am2 board its a main isolator so I would have to carry out the test on 3 test lead LOW so I dont trip the RCD? When doing Ze, Zs and Pfc tests etc...

    But howcome, wont there be no current down the neutral, this causing a imbalance and tripping? Just dont want to do my live tests resit and mess it up. How would you measure pfc on that tester then?

    Am2 exam live testing part need some help please!

    But surely if your testing line to earth of the Ze test wont this still trip the rcd due to the imbalance? So surely you would do a 3 lead test? As in for pfc what setting would you go on and you can do a 2 lead low test on that as well? But, again wont this trip the rcd? Some people say do...

    Am2 exam live testing part need some help please!

    So Im i right it thinking that since the board has a 3 phase Rcd I would have to carry out Ze, Zs, PfC test on a 3 lead low test or not? Im honestly baffled like. Some people say 3 lead, some say 2 lead. But when I done 2 lead Hi test on Ze it tripped the rcd in the workshop. So, if I do it in...

    Am2 exam live testing part need some help please!

    Ah right Ive watched his videos hes good to watch. So since the workshop has a rcd would that mean I would do all tests on a low setting/ 3 lead test? As in pfc, ze and zs?

    In the exam we have a megger mft1740 I believe so could you let me know what setting to set it to for the tests ive described?
  15. R

    Am2 exam live testing part need some help please!

    So doing a ze and zs test you can use a 2 lead low test? So it doesnt trip the rcd obviously. Then a 3 lead no trip test to measure pscc and pefc? That right or wrong? The x2 rule of thumb method is because the fault current that could be generated could occur between two phases. As some test...

    Am2 exam live testing part need some help please!

    I believe the workshop for the am2 exam has a 3 phase RCD protecting the workshop. So you would test everything on 2 lead low? Both pfc and ze/zs testing? There is only two outlets which have 3 phase and thats a commando outlet and a motor outlet point. Rest are single phase outlets i.e ring...

    Am2 exam live testing part need some help please!

    So do you measure PFC on high setting on the test meter but, would this trip the rcd in the main board? As this exam is carried out in a workshop environment? Also do you just test live polarity on the incoming tail side of the 3 phase DB?
