I have installed two lighting points in a garage through a FCU connected to a ring final circuit. When testing the installation would I treat the FCU as a distribution board and add my R1 + R2 from the furthest light to the FCU? Or would I need to include the R1 + R2 of the ring circuit too?

Hello,
Can anyone tell me the purpose/what is gained in testing step 2 as opposed to step 1
I know how to do the tests but can't get my head around what is achieved by testing line and neutal together and line and cpc when you have already tested continuity of each conductor in step 1
If...

Hello there got a query here - I Have got different results from each of the outlets on some double socket outlets on my R.F.C tests is this normal???? approx 0.2 and 0.5 ??? any help appreciated
Hi all
A few installs we have done lately are picking up a bit of interference on the projector image. It only shows up when a computer is plugged into a nearby socket on the same ring that the projector is spurred from. If you run it off a laptop on battery it's fine, then displays...

Hello all
I am sure there is an easy explanation but I am curious ...
Would be interested to know whether there is any major differences between the Ring final circuit and the Radial final circuit.
I am currently studying my NVQ 2330 level 2 and the only difference I can see from the...

This might come in handy when trying to understand what's happening when testing for Continuity of Ring Final Cct Conductors by cross-connecting opposing cct ends at the D/B.
This at least worked for one lad who just couldn't see it in a drawn diagram so one day I knocked this up from a few...

hi guys n gals,
just swotting up on some test procedures and im wondering how many of you do a 3 stage test on ring main circuits? i know from previous employers on a new build for instance, they just wanted me to get the end to end results and then go round to every socket and record which...
