Finding a neutral!!!

[moosey86]

Ok so I'm looking for the best method of determining which neutral is for which circuit when you are trying to identify one out of an old dis board full of singles supplying 20 3 phase ways. Not all triple pole breakers tho.

Let me know your tricks!! ......

Invest in a cable identification tracer?

Depending on circumstances I normally pull them all out and put em in block connectors and then energise the cct and find the live one

Use a clip on; put it across the phase, then across an individual neutral, the current on the live should be the same as the current on the neutral. Wont be exact but will give you a clue.

Is that a little strap on?
