Hi For your IR test P+N sounds to me that you have a alarm or may heating control or something like that in circuit.I've been told to enter LIM in the P+N box and then enter the details of why you have done this in the "Agreed limitation box".Would be nice if others agreed or disagreed with...

hi for normal single phase domestic supply U should be N/A and Uo should be 230v.

hi I asked this question at a some training I went on a couple of weeks ago and told to count every light fitting as one point including low voltage types.

I was told to enter either type g for general rcd or s for time delay rcd hope this helps.

Thanks Guys To be used for all Part P Installations Including 17th Edition if poss and Domestic periodic Inspecting and Reporting

I have a Robin 1620 which I am thinking of updating. I've looked at Megger 1552 and Fluke 1652.I'm looking at about £500.00 ish But also now seen the Alphatek range. Help please

The client told me that the RCD had sometimes tripped but does not trip everytime a bulb blows.

Thanks to both of you for help.I've check the connections,cabling and switchs So it must be cheap bulbs (imported !!).I did check insulation,loop etc all was ok and yes the 30ma RCD (split load box) does trip off.Just got to sort out the alarm which seems to trip out only on a weekend ?

I have been to quite a few properties complaining of having to replace a lot of bulbs and quite often.I've carried out some checks but everything seems ok but for one thing,the voltage reading is always high ie 245-250v. Anyone got some ideas for me. :idea:
