Appendix B Table B6 . Maximum zs for Type B 6 amp 60898 MCB is 5.87 ohms. Thanks for putting this content on youtube, it is good that there is advice and guidance available within the industry & at the same time showing possible customers a good view of what to expect if they use your service.
Thank you, your content helps tremendously. The use of Fluke another reason I follow.. I would like to see how auto test will do onsite.
Grand champ once again bro! Please do another! Absolutely; love the vids. 👍🏾
@Artisan Electrics - BS60898 Type B 6amp maximum earth fault loop impedance is 5.87ohms
Hi Jordan. Nice run through on the EICR not sure landlords will do it every time they put a new tenant in as I know some that have about 3 in a 5 year period.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Hi jordan, love watching the informative content you guys produce at Artisan. I was wondering if you were to purchase a new MFT which would you go for ? Megger MFT1741+ or Fluke 1664FC ? As you have experienced using both machines which do you prefer ? Cheers 🤔
Great video jordan 👍 love the content at the minute as I am a adult learner , keep up the good work
Hi Jordan, enjoying the content, keep up the good work! This isn't criticism but simply an observation regarding your testing methods. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but it is my understanding that Zs cannot be used to prove polarity. Polarity is a dead test (other than incoming supply) and thus should be confirmed visually or with the use of an R1 + R2 test. I prefer to use the R1 + R2 test method for the continuity of CPC as it satisfies both the continuity of CPC and polarity checks. Furthermore the R1 + R2 test also facilities the calculation of Zs and in some circumstances this is safer than carrying out the live Zs test by measurement. Where safe to do so I also carry out the Zs test by measurement and compare it against calculated results.
Great vid keep them coming like the eicr vids how long did the appartement take
I'm supprised test equipment manufacturers haven't developed their own form software that wirelessly links to the tester and fills in the form as you go along depending on the readings you are taking. Could be one hell of a time saver, especially if the UI in the tester was developed correctly. The tester could easily be updated with ammendments/editions as a simple firmware update to ensure it's doing it correctly.
Great Video buddy. Have to laugh at how thorough you are when you think loads won’t take the cover off the damn consumer unit let alone a blank plate of an unused circuit 😂👍🏻👍🏻
I use the long thin probes on the megger tester for the Rcbo's at a consumer unit as the standard Gs38 probes dont Reach far enough into the live terminals
Hi Jordan Notice you use the remote button on the test probe. Not really needed as the fluke auto starts zs test. Always found that remote probe can give odd readings. Any reason you use it ??
Good video , did you fit a 6 monthly rcd test notice
As long as there's different depths things we will never be able to standardize on probes. There's a finger guard there for a reason and they should be used by professionals who have the training or at least the wear for all to read the manual. Your fingers shouldn't be touching the metal of the probes when you're using them. Which is why I say and have had to take the Caps off and then out of fear of losing them just leave them off. Granted I am in the US with only 120, 240 V the only time I had an issue was when I tried to do something stupid sorted and the box was very tight and I tried to get to a terminal screw without removing the device and grounding it to the Box. I wasn't getting good readings from the socket and managed to bridge my pro-tip between the screw and the Box that was metal I put a nice gouge in it. And I think I was also dealing with a Federal fire Pacific panel....
Good video Jordan 👍🏻. Have you tried the Kewtech Lightmate adaptors for testing? They are handy to have in your test kit
What you should mention also is how to change the battery on the 'Hardwired' smoke alarms, as it has a memory to warn you the battery needs to be changed.
There's a reason GS38 shrouds are removable. If you're self-employed, use what works while understanding the risk. Different if your employer expects you to do something impossible.
Yes Re is R2. As originally specified, the 1653 was a pan-European tester and some countries (eg NL - I think) place more emphasis on Re than Rle. However, I have no idea why it's only one decimal place.
