So i sit in 2 lectures with smart people with degrees teaching us on earthing and these tests for 3 hours and this guys sums it up in 5 min . Thank you
Hi great video and very informative but when carrying out a high current Ze test with this tester then it should be configured in two lead configuration as per the manual with the blue lead piggy backed into the green lead, which gives you a true impedance of the LOOP measurement.
There are 2 tests that you do, there's the PEFC and your PSCC, dependent on your multifunction tester, some will do a 2 lead test and some have to be 3 lead tests.
Your Earth Loop Impedance test should be done after your polarity live test. Think about the acronym CRIPPER. The Earth Tests are the E within the acronym.
I wish we had videos like this in Australia. Here in Australia are regulations are so strict that there is very little on line information on doing virtually any electrical work, for example replacing an existing power point is illegal. By the way in Australia we do not have ring circuits. I do not know if they are even legal here. I am puzzled about how these testers actually do the test. They must sample a few cycles of the sine wave drawing no current and then place known load that draws a known current for say one cycle 20msec then get the voltage change and the using the definition of resistance come up with a measure of impedance. No wonder these testers are expensive you would need some clever software to do this and sturdy hardware.

this is a great day to come across my favorite page.
Your videos are so informative and easy to follow.
Especially the earthing arrangements 1 was good and clear.
Thanks and can’t wait for next 1
we’re glad you find them informative! make sure to check out our other videos we have!
I am learning a lot of skills and would love to come and work in the uk
Excellent demo lads well done thanks very much
Yes Carl had great time in Wakefield...lol miss the old days
Thank you for the video
Excellent 👍 thanks
Good video
Why do you have to connect 3 leads to check Ze or PFC does it measure PSC as well at the same time?

Hi, thanks. all in one details
Whaf is your tester model please
Kewtech KT63DL is the one we're using there.
When earth loop impedance test?

I dont believe thats how you do a Ze test on the kt63, its a 2 wire test on high current.
Hi
sounds like Marcus rashford
