hi guys
i went to a customers today to do a mains change, it was a tn-s supply, the earth was to a block but there was none to the db:mad:. so while i was changing the db i rectified this with a 16mm. on doing the earth loop test with my megger it was showing voltage between L/E but wouldnt perform test. testing the socket beneath gave me an earth loop of 2.03 ohms??????

im guessing ive got a dodgy earth so what i was going to do was change it into a tn-cs arrangement, have any of you come across this before?
thanks
 
No lol. Went to price a job 2day for an old lady I said I'd have to up grade the earthing which is quite a job as cu is opp side of rhe house but she said then ooooooo I'll leave that then was just checking I was right I did notice that the water aint got any bonding at all though said that needs 2 be done but she replied son I'll be dead by then and started laughing.
