Hi Guys,
I was wondering how the 4/6 way powerboards with earth light on them know that the earth is good?
It's not something I need to play with, I'm just wondering how you can trust them?
I suspect because our neutral is tied to earth at the power station,
We could locally connect a neon between active and earth to light the neon.
Same as if we touched an active line and our body was earthed, there would be trouble.
Cheers, Art.
