[QUOTE="avinalarf, post: 76057, member: 631"] I've had to go to a job in Berkshire (make-up job!) so I've not been able to get on the forum much :( ... I did manage to locate the RM quite easily - fortunately. Sounds dumb, but I didn't realise you could test for IR anywhere in the ring Blushing. Doesn't the fact that the neutral and cpc conductors are still connected at the CU matter then??? So how come the tester still counts up to over 500Mohms when carrying out the cpc - line/neutral test:| Will do when I get home on Saturday. I do have a multimeter and since reading a previous thread on the forum, I always test at 250V first [just in case...] ;) Won't return to this job until next week, so I'll let you know. Thank you :x [/QUOTE]
