1. The pitch supply circuits are separated toform an independent TT system to meet the requirements of Electricity Safety,Quality and Continuity Regulations (ESQCR).

a. The method used to determine the earthelectrode resistance for this system before a supply is available is.....
b. Following the text above in a. the earthelectrode resistance is determined from the test results obtained by.....

c. An alternative method to a. above, whoch maybe used to determine the resistance of an installation earth electrode whichforms part of the TT system where the installation is protected by an RCD, whenthe supply is available is

d. The maximum earth electrode resistance valuesfor each of the following RCD ratings are:
1. 30mA
2. 100mA
3. 300mA
4. 500mA

e. The maximum value above which BS7671recommends the earth electrode resistance may prove to be unstable is
 
You see, we know the answer.
It will not help you just to be told what the answer is.

Everything you need to know is in BS7671 and GN3.
You've not given all of the question anyway.
My guess is its a caravan/camping park. I wonder if there is a section dedicated to that in BS7671???
 
I am getting astounded at the amount of college questions just bunged on here. These people need to learn some communication skills, pose a proper thought out question after having researched the answer themselves first. Goodness knows how they will deal with real customers when they get any. "Der, ohh, ahh, wot init" and the like comes to mind!

look up the answers in your books
A,you will know where to find them next time
B,it's much more fun finding the answers for yourself,then you can pat yourself on the back
GOODLUCK
 
Since you said please, then have a look in IEE Guidance note three: Inspection and testing.
In the initial verification section under the earth electrode resistance testing part it describes all the procedures and gives the answers that you need in very straight forward format.
