Not going to comment to much on this but i will say the cable size 2.5 mm from the house consumer unit to the garage board is the weakest link so installing certain size cable from the garage board to the new welder socket will not be the problem here. The work is also notifiable and not the...
The level 3 2365 diploma qualifies for a student loan as a full time course but you will need level 2 first. Search the government website for info on student loans for more info.
Certainly agree that there is no quick route to becoming an electrician.You will only become a fully qualified electrician with a fully recognised degree both level 2 and 3 and a lot of experience as i will guarantee you will not pass the AM2 examination without it. The level 3 NVQ will require...
Just a short post, I have recently been made unemployed again due to a short term agency contract finishing. Looking for work in either the HV sector or domestic/commercial/industrial areas. Experienced and reliable im in my 40's with own tools and qualifications and ECS card. Willing to travel...
Im currently in the same boat so to speak i accepted work through an agency as a mate and have had to use an umbrella company to get payed, 40 hours a week crap money at £10 per hour and that includes my holiday pay as well apparently but the company have supplied a hire vehicle and i do get all...
Im playing it bit by bit but im stuck lol awesome game and one of the best yet so much better than the modern warfare stuff they brought out over the last few years.
I can pretty much guarantee that most PAT testing companies who employ people will have passed the item on a visual test and thus adding to his/her test results
Ok so I have just tried this out by waving a lump of wood in front of my neighbours PIR light in the garden attached to his shed while hiding alongside the shed the light did not come on but my neighbour came out thinking i was trying to smash his light lol a bit of explaining to him and he has...
As Martyn has posted above try adjusting the PIR sensor to see if that works first set it to maximum and depending on where the light is situated you may need to adjust the angle of the PIR.
I might be wrong here but i think you can use a tilt sensor for the garage door so when the door opens the tilt sensor will activate and will power up the light in the garage but the light will be one that has no PIR sensor and will be powered from the tilt sensor.
Very true m8 you cannot gain the level 3 2365 without the level 2 qualification first, if you could jump straight into the level 3 then everyone would of done it as it would be cheaper and a year less at college.
Agree with massive 1 on his first post im sure these courses are made up and to the...
3ft is luxury lol if you cant find a void hatch then as sparky chick said in her post you can make one but always cut the floorboards centre of the joists so you will be able to screw the new void boards back down and it would be advisable to screw in extra lengths of 4"x 2" to the existing...
College is still IMO the best route, if you are struggling to get an apprenticeship then go the college route and apply to all the local electricians in your area for an electricians mate position and even ask the tutors who have taught previous students that have become fully qualified if they...
You will not be able to get a trainee electrician ECS card unless you can prove you are working towards gaining a fully qualified electrician certification. This will require proof of your enrollment onto the level 3 2365 diploma and also proof that you are employed carrying out electrical work...
Ok i might be opening up a can of worms here lol but i have only come across a DNOs incoming earth connected into a metal earth block that is attached to the wooden board in all earthing arrangements on domestic premises TT excluded for the minute.
In both TNCS/PME and TN-S the DNOs earth is...
