Please note that this is a dead test and the circuit must be isolated when testing
Top be carried out on radial circuits to ensure the CPC of the circuit is undamaged and connected throughout the circuit
The highest reading should be obtained from the furthest part of the circuit. If the highest reading appears not to […]
1. Safely isolate the supply
2. Disconnect one end of the conductor, preferably the end at the consumer unit.
3. (Null out test leads) or ( record and remember to subtract from end result)
4. Connect one test lead at the consumer unit’s disconnected end
5. Connect the other test lead to the metal work of which the conductor […]
Description of test
Performing this test is to ensure that there is continuity throughout the circuit, that there are no breakages and conductors have been connected correctly. Be sure you have isolated the supply before beginning the test.
