[QUOTE="OnOff, post: 394149, member: 16173"] I was once testing the IR on a lighting circuit I'd just been through doing various minor faults. L-N, L-E, N-E were all ZERO Mohms........... Panicking now I took a deep breath thinking WTF had I done, nailed, pinched or screwed. It was just after I started using WAGO block clamp terminals. It was late and the last place I'd been was in the loft. The lamp batten holder was smashed to pieces so not having another I decided on the tried and tested method to "make safe" of fitting a bit of connector strip wrapped in tape and I'd replace the next day.............. The slow realisation that 222-413 is NOT the same as same as a 3-way terminal strip! But then sometimes I'm a C***! :lol: Still, if ever I needed a reminder of the benefits of dead testing! (As an aside I was never a big fan of that [I][B]Windows Minnellium[/B][/I]................) [/QUOTE]
