Hi All,
We have had an Acenta G4 alarm fitted for 5 years. It has been fine until recently, however the keypad now appears to have failed.
There are PIRS sensors, a door sensor and an alarm box with LEDs/siren.
On the keypad, the 2 LED lights are not illuminated. The keypad does not work...
Any fault finding advice
It’s always been said to clients to unplug everything if a fault on socket circuits but can you
Turn off counter top fused spurs for e.g washing machine instead of the hassle to get to the back of plugs.
So I’m asking are fused spurs double pole.
Also the same question...
Hi I have my fault finding resit in a couple of weeks.
the 3 possible faults are-open circuit short circuit and high resistance
how would I test for each of the above faults and what sort of resolute am I looking for on the tester
The test instruments I have is a low ohm continuity tester...
Hello everyone,
I have my AM2 fault finding resit on Friday and just wondering if anyone has any top tips as I don’t get to do any fault finding at work?
In the AM2 you get 7 faults which can be on these circuits:
1 usually on a data circuit
2 on earth bonding to extraneous parts water pipe and...
Hi,
Anyone have experience in the following:
16a MK RCBO Tripped supplying Garage. 2 Circuits. Radial and Lights (6/16) MCB's

Possibly a daft one this lads but any insight welcome. Have set a dummy rig up at home and am trying to replicate a low resistance fault on a ring main. No prob getting off scale high and zero readings but anyone think of a way of creating a low but not zero reading.
Hello,
Would welcome any advice-
We have an earth fault to a fire alarm loop, everything connected is XP95 and there are isolators in many bases and call points..
Is there a hints/tips way to find this, without having to gain access everywhere.
Would splitting the loop, powering the half that...
2005 Camry. Yesterday the headlights started to play up with an interesting issue. When the ignition is on + the light switch on the steering is on, the low beams do not light up. However when the high beams are turned on, both the high and low lights are on. All or nothing it seems.

Hi All, hope your all well.
I was hoping if I can please get some advice in regards to SWA. In Particular using SWA as CPC. Cable size 95mm2
I have a table for SWA which shows various information, in the last two columns it shows the "resistance of steel armour under fault conditions at 70...
How would I pinpoint a fault on a ring circuit with very little resistances, and without any visual clues, only by measuring.
Say I have a break in neutral between db and first socket. How would I go about fault finding it?
1. I will use low resistance ohmmeter.
2. I will find that rn is not a...
