[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 548093, member: 250"] (1) Those test probes do not look like an industry recognised approved voltage tester to me? (2) I would not want to be using neutral as a reference point for any fault finding.. As neutral is also a Live conductor just as the Line conductors are. And a broken neutral conductor can give strange voltage readings and a significant electric shock to anyone who touches it!! (3) I would be wanting to use a proven earth reference point with a better voltage tester to see exactly what voltages you actually have or don't have.. [/QUOTE]
