Help!
Sorry having a bad day.
I understand the concept behind touch contact of 50v and the above 1666 ohms. But when physically testing with 17th ed dilog and testing a TT system 30mA RCD. At 1x and 5X what reading would you see on your meter? or would you just test the mechanical aspect...
ok, got a call from a customer, when they open dishwasher, touch the metal casing inside, and touch the sink they get a tingling go up the arm.
same when they touch the cooker too?!
this does not happen when they touch the outside casing by the way
is this some form of leakage to earth...
Could someone please confirm how to calc the size of an RCD PLEASE?
I was asked this and am not sure, looked in the regs T 3A and think its V over RA but am not sure of this.
I'm only domestic but I need to get this straight in my nut.
Cheers guys.
Hey guys , on the 2391 exam who knows the answer to the 3 tests regarding the sense of touch , Ive got a feeling a feeling that its not an option for a voltmeter

Hi Guys
New to this whole gig, currently doing my 2330 and have got hold of a 1653B
possibly the dumbest question on this site but....
When zeroing your leads do you touch the tips together?
Thanks
Hi all,i have recently purchased a megger 1553 mft & because i'm new to the game i was having a play with it & reading the user manual & just wondered what the function for the RCD touch voltage selection would be used for could anyone give me an example.You can select from 25v - 50v.this may...
hi could you give me some advice regarding calculations for RCD touch voltages
30mA RCD
RA X I^n = < 50v
166 x 0.3 = <50v
100mA RCD
RA x I^n = <50000v
500 X 100 = <50000v
300mA RCD
RA X I^n = < 50100v
167 x 300 = <50100v
500 mA RCD
RA X I^n = <50000v
100 x 500 <50000v
any help on this...
Apparently if the pipe work in a property achieves certain resistance there is no need for bonding if a RCD is used. What is the figure that needs to be achieved? I have been looking through the regs this morning but haven't found it.
Hi all,
I purchased a Hotpoint oven with a touch panel control with lcd idicators just over two months ago and to date the engineer has replaced several parts on several visits but still the fault persists.His last visit was today and he replaced several componets and the display seemed fine...
