The 'enquiry' would simply come back as 0.35 PME and 0.8 TN-S.  They don't like giving complicated answers!

True - they either tell you to "Have a nice day" (piss off).

Or they give you the standard values. If so then that's acceptable on PIR's, Minor Works and EIC's. Load of old rubbish I agree but it IS acceptable.

[quote author=theduck  link=1111428702/0#0 date=1111428702]I have two books which contradict each other. One says it [b]shouldn't be disconnected for the test and the other says it should be connected. Which one is right? [/quote]
What are the two books, and which says which?

Yea, good point BAS, otherwise you cannot reference these for you're self  Roll Eyes

Although I know of a few books myself that contradict each other, but that's life, whats important is theyt may be meaning different thing's, in which case both are right  Wink
