Hoping someone cleverer than me can shed some light on how this works.
Basically I’ve just bought the new Fluke T6-1000 with the contact free voltage measurement and have been playing with it as you do.
I’ve tried it at work and when put around the line to the consumer unit it measures 260V when grounded with the thumb pad on the back or the probe. As soon as I remove the grounding the reading jumps to 440v.
Now taking in to account the measurements probably aren’t accurate, how does this get a phase to phase voltage when there is only a single phase coming in to the site.
Please enlighten me.
