Testing

Sam Ayre

Should we be testing after a fused spur for example on a heating circuit I've always been told to only test upto the fused spur but that doesn't seem right to me what's other opinions?

    A little more context might help. Is this initial verification or periodic I&T?

    If it is a domestic CH system with a conventional junction box, I can see no difficulty taking the top off and testing Zs, but I wouldn't go any further.

    A similar approach could be taken with an immersion heater, but dismantling anything more to get to the load side of any flex is more than is required.
