NOTES:

1. Regulation 612.6 of BS7671 : 2008 calls for a polarity test to be carried out to establish that :
1.1 All fuses, circuit breakers and single pole switches are connected in the phase conductor only.
1.2 The centre contact of Edison Screw (ES) lampholders are connected to the phase conductor.
1.3 The polarity of socket outlets, other accessories and points of utilisation (eg luminaires) is correct.
2. The polarity of all circuits must be verified before connection to the supply.

3. Polarity testing must be carried with the supply isolated from the installation.

4. There are a number of ways in which polarity can be tested.

4.1 Visual checks where coloured cables are used.
4.2 Polarity test on lighting circuits, for example, can be conducted at the same time as that for continuity of CPC.
4.3 Indicators on RCCB testers and similar.

5. Of all of the above ways, the visual check is usually the easiest and this test is one that is best carried out by the person
installing and terminating cables, rather than by the 'test technicians.
