IR Test

[Newbyspark]

Listen mate we all make mistakes, the hard part is admitting it well done

Does that mean I got it wrong ?

Pete, think you might have two people mixed up here. Newbyspark's answer above was his first attempt (and I think it's correct), it was the OP who gave an answer based on the switch being in zone 2 (which it isn't, as you say).

I realised that after I posted it see we all make mistakes

[imranayaz]

thank you pete for your answer with regards to question one

 

[imranayaz]

Why are tests required to be carried out in a set sequence?

 

[imranayaz]

Is this simply because it is the safest way to test?

 

[Pete999]

Why test are required to be carried out in a set sequence?

On Site Guide page 90 Dead tests before energizing

Remember you ahve aready done the test so you have no need to inform anyone, as you have already switched off and isolated the supply

It's an IV Pete, there should not have been a supply switched on to it at this point.

Because the result of one test determines that it's safe to proceed to the next one.
