What is the name of the fault when main bonding high resistance?

[oldtimer]

So it is not called main bonding conductor is discontinues?

Thanks.

I think you are being disrespectful so I will unsubscribe from this post and ignore all your future posts

you're right trev, i can.

You're anything but a monkey Tel, and well you know it mate

 

[telectrix]

been called worse, mate.

Sounds like a high resistance fault( HRF) on a cable that should have a low resistance, you could refer to it as a or HRR (high resistance reading) or a HRROAC ( high resistance reading on a cable) or a TAHRROTCWSIPOTSFT (that's a high resistance reading on that cable what should I put on the sheet for that) lol

Brillaint!

So it is not called main bonding ....?

No.
It's called "Main Protective Bonding Conductor"

...is discontinues??

High Resistance Fault. Exceed expected 0.05 Ohm

Continuity - Failed code C1

Continuity - Failed code C1

Not a C1. There's no immediate danger present. Code it as a C2, potentially dangerous.

 

[glasgospark]

is your meter calibrated ? leads ok ?

 

[glasgospark]

No.
It's called "Main Protective Bonding Conductor"

I thought it was called "fooked" and it got replaced with one that was called "unfooked".


I may be wrong.

544.1 - any other questions ?
I don't question his qualifications (might be cowboy) - just try to help without sarcasm. Is like speed camera - if you slow down and are not flashed, then it fulfilled its role.

In the past I had guys learning from me in work and become contract maganers afterwords - still yet being judged. You have no clue what is Kirhoffs laws? Or for example where the factors in BS7671 have come from? Or let me say that Impedance is not resistance measured under AC conditions but is summary of two different reistances Z=R+X resistance and reactance, which varies from resistor, trough condensor and inductor in electrical circuit. Also that in AC we use not full curve of voltage under frequency of Hertz. Have you ever heard of these ever? Or just passed 3 years school, then 2382, NICEIC registartion - and playing smart? For you - SPD was introduced in UK in 2011 - in Eastern Europe they are vastly used since '90. Every building and installation has to have surge protective installation since I remember and I graduate in 1989.
So I tell you this - go and learn ring final better.

Are you asking me this ?

I don't question his qualifications (might be cowboy) - just try to help without sarcasm. In the past I had guys learning side by side in work and become contratc maganers - still yet being judged. For what that you have no freaking clue what is Ohms or Kirhoffs laws? have you heard of these ever?

You told the guy it was a C1 code this part I stated blind leading the blind

because it is C1 - no continuity on MPBC. The resistance over 2 ohms on MPBC the cable is f ... d and is not able to accomodate fault current flow into safety

[glasgospark]

Its a c2 you fool even if the cable wasn't in it wouldn't be a c1
