Doing some alterations to a ring as part of a refit.

In the center of the room was trailing socket that had been fitted to a pedestal desk, just lying on the floor, to be dealt with later.

Anyway opened up the ring on a wall socket, being a good boy and testing before butchering, and did some end to ends r1 and rN fine r2 was like a roller coaster up and down from open circuit to 2.0 Ohms.

Checked the leads, checked the crocs, looked at the CPCs, all ?

It was almost as if me moving was affecting the reading, hang on..

Under my foot was the T&E of the trailing socket..

Who'd ha thunk it?

Single Handedly the sketchyisy s**t I’ve found this year !! The rest of the property matched the workmanship if anyone was wondering ?

So much for having confidence in your work.

This is in a small precinct car park. Consumer unit and contactor enclosure replaced, aside from being a lash up there are no cpcs from the dist board. Zs at lighting columns 16.33 ohm.
