[QUOTE="DimSpark, post: 465520, member: 30099"] In case anyone wanted to know the outcome of this one - I had a sparky round to take a more thorough look at the insulation results (not the same one that carried out the tests). He re-ran the tests and confirmed that they had been carried out by connecting all of the circuits and testing in one go (and suggested here). He ran the tests on each circuit and traced it to some external wiring for floor lights and a socket outside the front of the property. The low reading was coming from the RCD located outside for this circuit. Changed it and all is now fine :) Thanks to everyone for the replies. [/QUOTE]
