    Actually I came to the forum for fairly urgent advice, not for a 'laugh' and not to be judged. But looking at most of your comments it seems to be a favourite of yours to judge people and tell people they shouldn't be doing this or that rather than offer the advice and help they've asked for...

    cheers to 333rocky333. The only person who responded with a sensible and useful answer. Incidentally, I have C&G parts 1,2, 2381, & 2391. But I guess I lack experience in some areas. After all I only know what I know.... I'll leave the rest of you to get back to your pedantic forum life...

    Insulation resistance

    Hmm... Maybe I should have worded that differently. I was struggling with IR using the 1552 Megger, not the test. Thanks for all the sarcastic replies though. Well handy when you need some help! Incidentally, that part p doctor doesn't seem to be readily available, amazon quote a 4-6 week...
