Substation right across the road - PSC

[se7aq]

Hello

Testing for PSCC and PEFC with the substation in view from underneath the staircase, I got one reading testing PSCC on 2000A but overload on PEFC. But on 20ka I got tests results on both PEFC and PSCC. Can I use these results on my certificate for PFC?

Cheers, as ever.

Maybe you should think about responding to your last started thread, with some feedback, before you launch into the next one!

just record what you have? I am assuming you are doing an EICR?
You can rely on the back up protection of the BS88 (31.5ka) or BS1361 (33Ka) for single phase.

I gave you advise in post 3, there really isn't that much to say about it.

Was using a new megger 1730 with my last employer, that used to throw up 20ka PEFC, when tested again with a different tester it would always come back with a more predictable reading.
Sent the megger back and it had a firmware update or something, and it eorked fine after that.
So, what tester were you using to record the high PEFC ?
The last reply was correct by saying the service cutout can handle the 33Ka.
