Hi all,

Just thought of something regarding testing the 16a socket outlet. When testing R1+R2, would you do the same process for the motor circuit? So test at the top of isolator for L1 to E, then use the socket adapter to test the singles L1 to E and add the two results together? Then the same for L2 and L3.

With the link between each phase and earth at the DB. Thanks for your help.
 
For the isolator, you can turn it on and measure through it. For the starter, you can measure DB -> Starter Input (with a link at the DB) and then Starter Output -> Motor (with a link in the starter) and add them together.
 
Got that SC for the motor circuit:thumbsup: Just wasn't sure if it was the same process for the socket outlet circuit?
