[QUOTE="Risteard, post: 461913, member: 2666"] When carrying out periodic inspection and testing why test between live conductors at all? I always agree this as a limitation beforehand. It just wouldn't be feasible otherwise. If I go around disconnecting loads everywhere there is a chance I would introduce a fault reconnecting them, or in the case of appliances unplugged and lamps removed it's simply far too slow to be disconnecting all of them. To me insulation testing between live conductors is really only relevant to initial verification. I fit USB socket outlets when requested, but I never recommend them. [/QUOTE]
