conduit used as cpc

[Buzz-light-bulb]

Hi all again

I'm doing another condition report for a property, no cpc for sockets, cooker lighting, what's the best way to test continuity, I'm thinking of doing the same way as R1+ R2 line to earth terminal, also would you record results in r2 box or R1+ R2 box, I'm having a bad day

connect the L to conduit and continue as if its a normal R1 + R2

Yes and you should get some nice low readings assuming it's all good

How big is the property?? It may be better to use the earth lead test approach!!

It's fairly small property, and basically it's got new consumer unit (plastic) and there's a steel adaptable box behind it where all the conduits are connected and this is earthed via a 6mm conductor which connects into cu earth terminal so I'm abit limited

I'd be using test method 2 for conduit cpcs
