therefore, the connection between neutral point of the distribution system and earth
should be checked before testing.

●

If leakage currents flow in the circuit following the RCD, it may influence the

measurements.

●

The potential fields of other earthing installations may influence the measurement.

●

Special conditions of RCDs of a particular design, for example S- type, should be

taken into consideration.

●

The earth electrode resistance of a measuring circuit with a probe shall not exceed

table1.

●

Equipment following the RCD, e.g. capacitors or rotating machinery, may cause a

significant lengthening of the measured trip time.
