We do have such tests to carry out on new electrical installations.

We would generally use a Meggar type insulation tester to ensure that the
insulation on all the conductors is in tact and not allowing
voltage/current
t  pass to other conductors.

As a meggar generates a high charge it would not be advisable to leave X-10
devices in circuit whilst testing. This is also true of other descrete
electronic devices such as timers and the like.

In England,Do you have t  do an electrical installation test after a
new installation? If so , is such test carried out using a Megger
Ohmsmeter.
The key question is thou: Should you perform such test on an
installation with X-10 fixtures installed?
