[QUOTE="extension15, post: 14113, member: 5"] Firstly... [URL="http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2006/SamTetruashvili.shtml"]http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2006/SamTetruashvili.shtml[/URL] As for the NIC, I take their views with a pinch of salt (which may help things along here).. I'm sorry Specs, but A 2V drop in your IR voltage reading is hardly convincing, especially given the output impedance of the meter in the first place.. Connect an AC ammeter in series as well, just to prove my point.. Then add some impurities and see the improvement, but 10's of Amperes will never flow, however other contamination factors/worn outlet (previous arcing) etc may contribute to a more conductive path, but I still doubt it could trip a 32A mcb.. ; \ [/QUOTE]
