Does earthing resistance is different between day & night?
The earthing indicator does lit during daytime and off during night time.
Anyone knows about this...can explain.

Long story short, you had earth cable fault somewhere and the indicator light is just false positive due having short from neutral/live to earth from an appliance that only turned on during day or night.

Did you test using the same socket/circuit as the device with the indicator when the light is off? Can the socket tester trip the RCCB? If yes then it's the device with the indicator itself having problem.
