Could anyone just give me a bit of advice regarding a Zs test at a light switch, as the tester i have just baught is the ''Fluke 1653'' tester and it uses a 3 wire test earth, live, neutral to aquire the Zs.

Am i right in saying that you have to do it manually by shorting live / earth at C/U and do a ohms check then add this to your Ze test?.

Your thaughts would be appreciated, Thanks
