[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 555165, member: 250"] I would think that a short time doing a few continuity and Insulation resistance tests would indicate what the actual problem is...?? I have no idea how you are going to prove anything without getting a competent electrician with appropriate test gear out to do a few tests and investigations??? Unless you do have access to, and know how to use, industry standard continuity and insulation resistance test metres??. But as you haven't actually quoted any test readings that you have done on this suspect cable then it is a bit of guess work? If the consumer unit end is TN-C-S and the remote end it TT then the remote cable armour and earth conductors would not be connected to the remote CU. But as has been asked WHAT DEVICE IS TRIPPING??? MCB, RCD, RCBO?? [/QUOTE]
