Don't fully understand your question but try the same tests again using an analogue tester (one with a needle, not a digital display)

Thankyou for this very useful information:dunce2:

PMSL - unfortunately a sign of the times when we feel we have to explain it...

PS welcome to the forum - not aiming that comment your way you may well know what one is just a general comment!

I made a post suggesting something similar last week and the guy was confused by the word 'analogue' so I'm giving more info now in case it's a term not used too much in the UK.

Read that 10times, and it's getting worse each time - i've now picked up the word 'site' ... did you travel to another site just to try your tester lol?
