The OP should be aware of this if carrying out an EICR.C2 - check the earth continuity - bet there isn't any ..........
The OP should be aware of this if carrying out an EICR.
Don’t you go round wiring up 11kV rings anywhere near me not something I want to come across on a domestic/commercial EICR most of the time someone on here will assume the worst we are all guilty of it with the limited info most OPs give and the amount of chancers we get on here doing their own work and nuggets that don’t know their earth from their a**eYou will have to have a bit of patience with me as up to a year ago the only experience I had of a ring circuit was at 11000v,the last phase rotation test was on a 11000v , 7.4 MW ,slip ring motor and my last-phasing out was paralleling two 5MVA 1100/550V Dyn 11 transformers. The signing off package ran to volumes.
Having said all that I am also autherized to switch 33000V systems.

Hi All
Taking a Zs from a light switch and am reading 160 volts between L & E.
What would you code this. I think it could be a neutral fault but I don't have the time available to investigate. The location is a hotel room.
You obviously don't get the joke, lighten up a bitThat's lovely, but as far as I know completly irrelevant to your original question and any testing carried out to bs7671.
This suggests you have less than a years experience of working on installations at lv and to bs7671, so approximately the same experience as a first/second year apprentice.

Perhaps the switch is the furthest point!Other test results?
R1+R2?
IR testing?
And out of curiosity why Zs from a switch position and not furthest point of the circuit?

What that it isn't or can't be the furthest point?Not sure that is even possible.

Out of curiosity why are you quoting the units of zs in volts??Hi All
