Testing an Earth rod, with wait for it..

Gas pipe doesnt run under where the rod is, and I get a better reading off the water pipe.. Ill disconnect the main earth LOL.. sorry the 4mm cable from the water pipe and see what reading I get..

I thought the meter measured the impediance between the phase / neutral and the item under test (its a fluke loop tester, but an old one.. Keep meaning to buy a new multifunction tester, like the ROBIN as this thing is usless with RCD's) and too old :)

30ma RCD is what will be used for the moment, im not paying silly money for a 100ma time delayed for a temporary installation, All thats running at the moment is a 5KVA 110v transformer, so nuisance tripping isnt so much of an issue.. The lack of floor when it does trip may be!!! :D
