    UK Electrical Improvers

    @nicebutdim @MJPD29 you're both right and wrong 😂 As an employer would you expect an Improver to do all the above for a wage matching a shelf filler at aldi and as an employee, should you be doing all of the above, when you could be shelf filling at aldi. But I see the so far the concensus is...

    UK Electrical Improvers

    Probably been covered 1mil times but not finding what I'm looking for in the search bar. So, how much solo work should an electrical Improver (£2 over min wage) be doing? Would you have them doing problem solving, project managing, circuit designing, dB changes including supply isolation...

    Electric boiler service

    Edit: An electrical safety inspection. 🤷‍♂️, I just did as was told. I also told customer and boss about leak as its a rental place. Other than that, its out of my hands now.

    Electric boiler service

    Update: I turned up, looked, saw it was a unvented system (that was leaking), took some pictures and drove back to office. It was then when I was told it was a safety check not a service (so why tell me service! 🤣) and all he did last time was check rcd was working and a earth continuity check...

    Electric boiler service

    I'm a million miles away from being an apprentice and about 25years to late, 🤣 just haven't taken any further courses as I (currently) have had no need for my nvq3 to 'prove' what I can and have been doing for years. And although there are 2 others more 'qualified' they certainly aren't more...

    Electric boiler service

    Nope, I have no information at all (as usual on 99% of my jobs apart from the obvious). I'm really not happy doing this, but as usual it's ignored and just told "its easy". More than likely just going to check the terminations on supply side and visual check for any thermal damage. After that...

    Electric boiler service

    Hello, I'm hoping someone can help. I've been told I have to do a electric boiler service and I honesty have no idea where to even start. I made my feelings clear about it, but it's unsurprisingly fell on deaf ears. Is this something that I should even be doing (only lv3 & 18th qual) first, and...

    UK How useful is a level 2 in electrical installations going to be in my situation?

    Nope, not got the funds for that. Was a struggle just to pay for lv2/3 and the company I'm at isn't fussed either. If anything it'll be 2391 next, but not for at least another year

    UK How useful is a level 2 in electrical installations going to be in my situation?

    I've just passed (well finally got certificate) for my lv3 and I'm 40, so never to old. 3rd career change, and hopefully the last as self funded and not cheap!

    Haven't got books on me atm and CBA to go to van to get them ?, but I'm pretty sure that anything above 2.5m in height is outside zones. The height of the main pool is over over 2.5m to celling. The zones go outwards, not upwards.

    Please Help L3 Design Project Selv

    Sorry, I made a boo boo! The 3 walls are within zone 1 not 2 (thinking of rooms with bath/shower ?), and so the south one is zone 2 just. No given height for plunge pool but as the plans show a level floor and steps leading to plunge then you can guess the celling height is more likely to be...

    Please Help L3 Design Project Selv

    The celling of the pool is approx 2.7/2.8m from the floor and therefore is outside of zones. The walls east, north and west are zone 2. The south wall with changing rooms is just outside the zones. The cables in which you can use have been pre decided for you so too has the the containment...

    But you have designed the circuit with the DB in the room you're working in?

    It's C&G, anything that makes sense is wrong, and what you'd never do irl is what they expect you to do! ?
