either by measurement or calculations.I have no need to actually test anything, but I am curious to know how a professional electrician would perform a Ze measurement if he encoutered this arrangement

Here is the whole box if that helps?I think if you look at it again there is an earth terminal block next to the cutout and the seals have fallen off.
That photo must be an optical illusion.
I see my sense of humour has fallen flat on it's arse agin.Here is the whole box if that helps?
But which one, its a bit cheeky saying that. any nobody like a smart arse.lol.see my sense of humour has fallen flat on it's arse agin.
The other option, although not ideal, is to test and record that Ze was taken with parallel paths in place. This happens more so in commercial and industrial settings where the supply cannot be shutdown for financial reasons.
That's what I would have expected to be done. Although would it really be necessary to connect all three of the original wires that now just go back to the cut-out? Surely one would be enough and the other two, now redundant, wires could be cut back flush.
If I remember from my college course many moons ago, you can also request the Ze figure from your local, friendly and ever helpful electricity supplier.either by measurement or calculations.

I've never tried it though. Anybody else had success with this?
