Crossover in ring circuit

[KeenPensioner]

HI, as my profile says I'm not a sparky and know my limitations. I'm trying to learn (for the sake of it only as I'll never do it) what tests for "Ring Final Circuits" are. I understand how the Tests 1, 2 and 3 are done but in one of the videos I watched the presenter (John Ward) mentions a "crossover" see image and says that this "could lead the current being shared in an undesirable fashion. I don't understand that.

Yep, I agree. Bit of banter/discussion/moderate arguing is a good thing generally. And we all learn stuff from here I'm sure.

everything in moderation, nobody wants to work with someone who loses the plot for no reason.

usually the big national company boys that struggle after their apprenticeship as most apprentices are used as cheap labour getting 1 or 2 jobs at a time and coming back to the foreman, not all but a good majority

one of the guys i worked with asked me for a flathead screwdriver, so i hand him the one i have in my pocket, it doesnt fit the screw so he launches it across the loft?!?! all because he was getting divorced apparently came to a head when he started shouting at me because HE FORGOT TO ORDER MATERIALS lol told him he had about 5 seconds to wind it in before he gets his jaw slackened.

we became buddies after that

How do you delete an accidental posting? (maybe I'll get a "Dumb")

I'd best be more careful I guess! - Seems a bit daft though - I just pressed the post button accidentally!!!

there is an edit option, so you could technically edit any wrong uns

You’ll see every so often a post that just says ‘deleted’.

You could ask a mod to delete it, if you've seriously embarrassed yourself, or edit it and just swear a lot will get the same response

I have reported my post and had it deleted when for some reason it’s posted twice.

I’m sure most ‘dumb’ ratings are people scrolling through on iPhone - too easy to do. Anyway - don’t let it get you down!

The layout of the buttons is a bit poor. (Please don't be offended by the "dumb" rating for this post - I just thought it would be funny...)
