Hi Guys i have traced the fault back to the first socket,the cpc between the cu and the first socket is broken so i need to find the break.The bathroom rad was sup bonded to a socket on this circuit so i guess i got a reading via the water pipe.Does that make sense?
Cheers

For info, no problem with Sup bonding to a socket to get an earth. It's a common way of bringing R1 R2 down by having as many parallel paths to reduce the resistance.

I am correct ?
