Hello. Does anyone have a fluke 1664fc tester, and have problems with it ? Most times I use it, it comes up with error message 5, which I think is interference on a circuit. Had the tester a couple of years now. Starting to wish a had bought a megger. It also trips rcds out, spoke to Fluke technical and their response was its a very complex tester, that's when technical is open, as apparently technical is closed on Tuesdays, as its the chaps day off !!!
Thursday's job, install a supply for a shower booster pump, apparently metering services sent a guy to fit a smart meter, but he passed on doing it.
Too many issues to deal with to worry about doing more than an earth loop test to confirm that there is an acceptable earth connection at the point the new connection has to be made for the booster pump supply.
Spot the Crabtree 50-50 double pole shockproof switch-fuse.
Then spot the earth fault protection for the farm building supply on the far right, bearing in mind it's all TT.
An earth loop tester that trips RCDs is about as much use as a chocolate teapot when you're out on a job snd need to crack on with things.
