You say "Clearly the resistance goes up as the sockets get further away."
and make it sound as if you did not expect that to happen.



Yes, I was trying to say it was like a radial where the resistance got
higher as I went along, but it did not go down as I progressed back
toward the CU, so the theory of the break between the last socket and
the CU holds some weight.


It certainly does, either that or an odd topology,

2 of the sockets have faulty outlets, so I'll change them on Tuesday
when I go back, and I'll do some further testing to pin down where the
fault is.


Well it will obviously be the last cable you test!
