[QUOTE="Phoenix, post: 466980, member: 8133"] I think a lot of modern testers will automatically discharge, Tony, problem comes when you mentally note the figure then pull the probes off before you let go of the button. Did it once on a lighting board, three phases linked out to neutral, neutral test link out and tested all conductors to earth. I then went to put the neutral link back in I seem to remember I just got a bit off a sizeable 'crack' as it discharged, rather than a belt (I think I've always been carefull enough to manipulate neutral links with insulated tools!)
