Earth Fault Loop Impedance Testing and Recording
19 March 2016
T403 Earth Fault Loop Impedance Testing and Recording Earth fault loop impedance testing is carried out on a completed electrical installation to check compliance with BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations) with regard to fault protection and is normally carried out as follows: 1) With a test current of approximately 23A where circuits are protected by overcurrent devices such as fuses or circuit breakers only; or 2) With a test current of approximately 15mA, to prevent unwanted tripping where circuits are protected by 30mA or other RCDs.
