    MCB's 230V/110V Zs Earth fault loop impedance values

    I give these out to some of our younger electricians in the aim to get them familiar with such values. Probably old news to most of you fellas but sure it won't do any harm. Calculations from BS7671 anyway, just handy to have a hard copy other than BGB. Cheers John

    External earth fault loop impedance Ze

    Hi all Just checking this procedure is correct for Ze This is a live test so with the consumer unti front off i would lock off main switch keep RCDs on and all MCBs on. Dissconnect the main earth. Now on the megger 1553 i would set it to no trip and use the 3 lead method ? So green...
