Hi Guys

1. Do you record all circuit test results on the same page or use one page for each phase?
2. Do you record Zs at DB...
I have spent quite a bit of time today trying to understand why I am only getting 0.654Mohms on the upstairs lighting between Live and neutral (at 250V)!!!
L-N 0.654 Mohms
N-E 25.11 Mohms
L-E 24.7 Mohms
I get almost the same when measured at 500V (cant remember exactly but about 0.6Mohms)

Thanks in advance!
Hi. I've tried to fit an Optima Compact alarm panel with built in key pad. Upon energising there is a tamper fault. I've removed all zones & linked them out but still no joy. This is the reason I hate doing alarms & will avoid in the future! Any ideas please??:devil:
During my zs tests on the ring circuit the rcbo trips. The breaker also trips when I take a Zs on the cooker. I have carried an insulation resistance test on the cables and have found a dead short (0.00) Mohm reading on the neutral and earth on the ring circuit. 137 between line and earth and 87...

I don't know what one I should get to replace my old box which says it's a Power Supply Unit.
