He very probably is - but I still genuinely don't understand what you meant by "...with the main switch on". Maybe it's just me and/or I'm having a bad day!The OP is confident enough to understand what is meant by continuity
Kind Regards, John

There will only be continuity between N and E with the main switch on.
So you're talking about the 'main switch' in the CU?There will only be continuity between N and E with the main switch on.
Indeed so.Right couldn't,t wait so hooked up a bulb holder wired into end wires placed multimeter across bulb load and turned switch on and now zero volts ... Removed and 176 back so looks like a neutral issue and further inspection required.
Unfortunately, even if an endoscope enabled you to identify the problem, I doubt very much that you'd be able to cure it endoscopically!Pray an endoscope works so I don't take half the hallway ceiling down locating issue.
It would be unusual, although obviously not impossible, for a screw to completely (or very nearly completely) sever one conductor and not do anything else 'interesting'. Some sort of loose/'pulled' connection would seem fairly high on the guess list.If I've stuck a drywall screw through it somehow Be sick as a pig hopefully a connector box up there as suggested and wired pulled etc.. Thanks all for comments - gutted but enlightened
Really good recent wake consumer box fitted and no issues with lighting circuit and yes reading is with light switch turned on. Checked light switch unit which also is good.
