Basically I've got my Level 3 Testing and Inspection exam soon. Now I know from friends who have done it already that I will 100% be testing a shower circuit and a motor circuit, I'm having a complete brain spaz at the moment and I can't remember what tests need to be done for those circuits, both dead and live. So I really need someone's help right now.

Read GN3, you have a copy right?, follow each test through in your head, understand it, don't move to another test until you do. The practical bit is just acting it out in the physical rather than the mental.

Yep I grabbed one from the library at college. Thinking of it I most likely won't stumble up on the testing because that's rather straight forward when I think of it, but it will more than likely be the paperwork that I balls up on.

Well I've only even tested lighting, ring and isolators and its all simulated at college. So the idea of testing a shower, motor, oh and garage circuit sort of scares me... I'm probably just being really dumb at the moment.

well obviously dont try testing between live conductors on the shower will you....
what your instructor will be looking for is for you to ask him if you can carry out a `limited` test on it....
this is IR by the way...

Lighting, shower. What's the difference?
Supply, CPD, switch, device. Both the same testing regime. Its just the shower has more Jiggawatts
