Hello Guys And Girls.

After Reading Ian's thread here (And after thinking about it since learning the sparking world, I thought that - with the help of all you experienced guys and Girls, you could possibly compile a list of testing figures and what you would think/experienced the result of that figure to be.

IE: 0.25Mohm on an IR test of a Ring, could - perhaps, be a Neon within that circuit.

I, as an adult learner of the sparking trade - I would appreciate the input and I am sure that other learner sparks would too.

What sort of reading would you expect for the famous "Aerial booster in the loft" scenario?

Thank You in advance for all Helpful replies.

The idea is sound but in practice the circuit lengths would be different in various locations and the readings will not be standard.

Personaly I do not think there are any shortcuts the item of equipment needs to be identified not assumed

 
I think there are far too many variables with this. just because you have a reading of 0.25 doesnt mean much without checking more. it would be something plugged in, it could be the actual cable, or bit of both.

I dont really see how this could work

 
Perhaps just a list of the little B***ers that can throw you when running an IR test for example, although I suspect many of the books have such lists

 
:eek: :Oi missed it:( :(
