Yesterday I started an EICR from the outset I saw a 100mA Rcd on the split board and was expecting some high numbers on the Ze thinking as it was an late 1800 house out in the sticks within the local castle grounds and maybe a TT , it was PME,d however, in the next field was the service pole so had a wander over as there was an odd thing sticking out half way down which was some sort of coupling on the earth strap going into the ground below which was as green as a green thing, maybe a manky connection I thought so undaunted we set to it and got .39 not sky high but enough to f£$% up my Zs,s , hoping to meet up with one of the local SSE chaps down the bakers as is oft the case t ask him if he might clout it with a hammer on the way past but sadly not, however and to the point today after the obligatory screwery at the sockets I was getting good readings to good perhaps so I did a Ze and viola .27, go figure
