I have always been a bit confused about boxes 10,12 and 13 in the example of a completed 'Form 4 - schedule of test results'.
I understand why the value we get for R1+R2 (when measured at a socket) is a quarter of the end to end resistances, but why on the form is this not more clear?
Box 10 (R1) and Box 11 (R2) do not equal Box 13 (R1 + R2). Again I understand why, but it just seems wrong to have a box for R1 and a box for R2 but adding them together is not R1+R2.
Its annoying :cuss:
The form is correct as boxes 10,11 and 12 are asking for the end to end resistance for r1 , rn and r2 , these are all end to end resistances as in step 1 of the ring final circuit test to check that they are substantially the same , the true R1 + R2 of the circuit is established in step 3 by cross connecting R1 and R2 and measuring at each socket outlet this goes in box 13 . If you add up box 10 and 12 and divide by 4 this cross references your R1 and R2 .
