2 core swa and armour used as earthAlso the CPC should be connected to earth during any IR tests.
Here (if SWA) it is very unlikely to make a difference, but more generally with stuff like T&E you can have a live nicked by a screw/nail and it is leaking to the wall, etc, but not to the CPC that still has the insulation separating them (and from wall, etc).
To be fair to Westy it wasn't adopted until 1873 which is probably after he went to college.View attachment 113647
Hate to say it Westward, but mega Ohm is the correct way of defining it.
No tripping when sub main switched off as that was only briefly while testing .Is that with whatever's at the far end switched off?
