Hi all, while testing Zs on a ring final circuit i found one socket to have a particularly low Zs. All others were reading between 0.25- 0.30 but this one was reading 0.08-0.09. Its got a brand new Crabtree double socket installed. A full RFC test has been carried out, and this is the only socket with a reading this low. Obviously i know its better than high, but was just wondering if anyone could shed some light.
Its a TNS system, Ze 0.26
