0.00 ohms r1+r2 on radial circuit?

[davesparks]

yes, but cable could also be SWA with the armour earthed but not used as cpc. the cpc core is the same size as the L and N.

Or flex, or hituff or ......,

Hadn't given much thought to SWA cables in ring mains..............Theoretically yes you are right.

 

[Darkwood]

no. with a rfc, you measure end/end of each conductor. these values are denoted by lower case r. when you cross connect on a RFC, or just connect L-E on a radial, you then measure R1+R2. ( denoted by upper case R ).

Slight hypocrite to note the importance of a capital letter when needed ....lol telectrix

Although I cannot say anything either ... but I didn't bring the subject up :laugh3:

i blame it on my email addy which is all lower case.

I had the same problem when I started using my fluke tester it turned out I had the null lock on.

you don't get that problem with a megger. can't deride flukes, though as i've never used one.
