Are you on a course mst?

I am next month but im trying to know what i can before i get there.

rather than turn up like most without knowing anything bout testing.

Thats what i like about this forum.Its great for learning stuff.
like an interactive exam sometimes.

Doing DIS next month then 2381

Was doing alot of electrical work and really enjoyed it prior the big P

Storm, remind me, does your tester need three leads to measure loop impedance? (If it does, the neutral is required for the instrument itself, with the measurement being made between the line and earth probes)

 

[mst]

only 2 on the 1552, thinking about it you havent got one of the leads in the "no trip loop" hole have you?

Ha Ha not done that yet!

Just waiting till later with friends and family round at mo, might wait till 11.59 tonight , you never know this year might go out with a BANG! lol

Bummer...know the feeling everytime i want to do tests the washing machines on etc or i get summons to tescos

i would advise a dead short somewhere which will blow the fuse then tell them all that they have to get out the house or there will be a serious fire and proberly they will die due to radiation magnetic feilds.

Or you could just wait till you got the house to urself

 

[dingbat]

Good luck with that.

Before you have another go, just read pages 79 & 80 of the On-Site Guide along with the instructions for your tester - you may have to search online for these.

 

[mst]

by the way the instructions i had with my 1552 were not as good as the ones i downloaded from the megger site.

if you havent got them......get them
