Question ( worth 15 Marks )
Describe how a test for earth fault loop impedance, by direct measurement may be carried out on a circuit supplying a three-phase steamer .

My answer would be
I would not measure Zs on this circuit as it would contravene EAW Safe working practices. The value for Zs can be achieved without working near live conductors by R1+R2+Ze.

Comments :- I guess my answer would not get me 15 marks !

Can Anyone out there give me a Model answer to the question ? i.e. What are the examiners looking for ?

Thanks

The clue is in "direct measurement" so it is a live test!
1 seek permission
1a signs/barriers
2 correct instrument and scale
3 calibration condition and operation
4 leads to GS 38
5 test between L1 - E
6 test L2 -E
7 Test L3 -E
8 record highest reading
9 reinstate circuit
10 compare readings to OSG or BS7671 corrected to 80%

No one really knows but that's a fair place to start I reckon.
