Data record instr.loop-impedance-tester.no-trip-caveat

Verified 2026-10-27 Confidence: High

No test technique can guarantee that a residual current device will not trip during a low-current loop test, so the consequences of an unexpected trip, such as loss of power to IT equipment, are weighed before the test is made.
