Spreads=plasterers Well done Gavin.

I find grey makes the best N because the CPC is in between that and the other 2 cores. Much like a CPC divides the cores in a T&E. Just my personal pref.

As much as I agree with how ADS is interpreting the regs, I think the regs implies in 132.16 that an existing installation starts at the distributors equipment. BUT it's all up for interpretation... However... If an installation starts at the Distributors equipment, then Gas and Water bonding...

Hi ADS, Just to let you know that in the second circumstance. The reading is a Zdb not a Ze. I've been corrected.

My apologies. I stand corrected.

I'll go over it again for you so you understand what happened because from what you are posting, you've obviously missed something or assumed something. A large Victorian town house has one supply. The house had been converted into flats. I took a Ze in the flat we were working in (by saying...

Of course I didn't!!! You playing the incompetent card AGAIN!!! Please remove the tone from you writing and the chip on your shoulder!! Sick of hearing it from you.. Such a shame for such a knowledgable. My boss called supplier to sort earth as PME was available.

I asked that exact question once.. It didn't go anywhere... It was cut off from the earth spike when the house was renovated 10 yrs previous.. The readings I was getting was the other flat's water and gas connections..

Possibly the second one!! Else how do I know I'm getting Earth and not someone else's gas bonding as a reading?

Ze? With muli flats bonding incoming supplies.. Does that mean your gonna need to knock on all doors to disconnect everyone's bonding to get a Ze?

John.. Re read our above posts

Same with mine.. Going back Monday, be interesting to see the changes.

The 2 tests I did were on the MET in the DB and the Line on the main switch.. No RCD's.. 2 different readings. Also the earlier test were carried out with plug lead so no probs with holding leads.. (not so) megger going back. Still a nice bit of kit if it worked. Also miffed the calibration a...

Don't say that, mine's going back to them on Monday!
