My 1653 has suddenly started giving inaccurate results when testing rcds. On a ramp test, it indicates that its giving 33mA and not tripping the RCD, but another tester the same RCD is tripping at 24mA, which is about normal for a 30mA. Fluke are quoting a fixed repair cost of £216 + VAT, to...
Anybody got there results yet im
still waiting I have rang the place where I did it but nobody could really help which has annoyed me a bit and said I'd hear soon but no actual date
Hi, I'm relatively new to this forum and have not long since qualified.
As one of my first job, I recently installed a new CU to feed a large shed. I got the clients provider out to install a service switch so I could safely tail up the new CU. Whilst the engineer was out he plugged his tester...
Hi anyone had there result back for June's 2391 .....just working with a lad who said he's been waiting 10 weeks,
When I did mine it was about 7 weeks so was saying he should have it now?
Well got a very big supprise today and found out i passed the exam. thought i failed for sure, so sure i done the july paper. thank god i can relax now.

Cheers,

Hi all
Why is it that on some circuit IR testing, the results shoot up to say 250 M ohms but then creep up towards a much higher value? I know that the results are OK, I just thought it may be some damp somewhere causing the problem possibly. Do you wait for them to stop creeping up or take a...
Just trying to get something straight in my mind. I've been looking at the Electrical Safety Council's Guidance 6 for changing a consumer unit in a domestic premises. They say that if the customer does not wish for a full EICR then the pre-work survey required before the CU change should...
Hello everyone,
Basically I have bought a new tester which is the Kewtech KT63 which i highly recommend.
However, I do my Ze test fine and for example it comes out with 0.18 Ohms, then it comes up with the PFC reading and it says something like 588.8A.
On my company's old tester it used to...

I wonder how high it would go if the inverter limit...
