    Sparking Earthing Conductor

    Hi, Whilst carrying out a ZE test I noticed that the earthing conductor sparked when re-inserted into the earth bar. Any ideas/solutions to what may be happening.  The installation was isolated from the main switch onwards. The property is a studio flat within a block above commercial premises.

    Thank you for your replies. It was a combination of socket adapter and a number of older sockets on the ring.
