Insulation resistance problem Discussion ThreadInsulation resistance problem Electrical Advice
Hi all,
Stuck on another job here IR testing. It's a simple 3 bed semi and after short put L-N at board and testing to earth, I'm getting 0.16 Mohms.
I've disconnected main incoming neutral, no surge protection of any kind in the house, I've taken out all lamps and plugged out anything I could find plugged and the same reading is coming up. It's a small board thats also supplying a shower priority board next to it. I've the priority board turned off too just to see can I get the value up. Haven't been able to. Any ideas? Would a damp or wet socket cause a short and if so would it display a value like 0.16?
Thanks
