[QUOTE="binky, post: 519334, member: 490"] I used to use 500V and managed to kill nothing, but, there's so much more sensitive equipment in houses these days, and even appliances like washing machines and fridges all have circuit boards, so I changed to 250V a few years ago, unless I know the cct is clear of such devices, whilst testing domestic properties. 500v LN-E should be fine, but so much is cheap Chinese stuff that I wouldn't want to risk it anymore. I think 250V is now considered acceptable anyway, but can't think where I read that. [/QUOTE]
