INSULATION RESISTANCE TESTING - I’m amazed at how many people don’t do it because of RCD’s!

    Everything you see i have purchased myself, this gives me complete control to voice my honest opinion about any product
    Just day to day sparky videos
    If you like it, that’s cool, if you don’t, that’s cool as well.
    Remember, context is important, I can’t show/film every part of every test otherwise I’d still be there now😂just assume I’ve carried it out correctly

    I have to admit that I usually don't do that either.
    This may have to do with the fact that I am a dog trainer and have never seen the inside of an electricity box, but who knows for sure?
    I vow to do better and will try to convince as many people as possible to test their insulation resistance, preferably on a daily basis!
    I hate the CZcams algorithm...

    You can turn off that annoying audible sound on the megger. It was driving me mad testing all day with that on 😂😂😂

    Enjoyed this content.
    Here is a counter argument for the people who say no need for IR testing as they have an RCD. Will that be a Type AC RCD that is being possibly blinded by DC current? (Especially in split load boards when they cover multiple MCBs)

      If you click the oblong box to the bottom right the picture expands.

    Do you do ir with rcbos open or closed as I know for mcb you want them closed for testing? Am I right?

    why mount the board at a height that little old granny cant reach?
    i like how thorough you normally are but personally, and knowing how tall my mum is, i would never knowingly do this

      Did you see where I eventually mounted it?….cmon mate….do your research before you say stuff like that. Go watch the full video of that job

      i didnt, by that point i lost interest and also struggled with the aspect ratios of the video itself
