    Hi Zs on one phase only

    Anyone come across this before? I was asked to do a Zs on a 3ph surge device; L1 was around 6 ohm, L2 & L3 around 0.11. Wired in singles from a Ryefeid and one earth conductor so cannot think why this might be low on one phase only.One thing I did see was L1 fuse at Ryefeid was doubled up with...
