[QUOTE="water and gas, post: 422541, member: 27931"] Andy, thank you for your post which is a constructive post not like some others where they are just negatively qualifying my incompetence which is fair enough as I am a starter but they are not helping me to understand what I am missing on. So because I am new in the trade I don't express myself clearly and not using the right wording! Through your post I better I understand that the pen was to check if the boiler was not live, and the socket and see (the one we used has the loop impedance button) to test the earth [U]loop[/U] impedance. Seems like the polarity is not relevant here as we haven't carried out any electrical work. Somehow with the gas engineer we briefly talk about polarity but that was then surely regarding a different matter where I got confused. As said I won't carry out any electrical work till I am confident and this should take me a year at least and under supervision till then. [/QUOTE]
