    Online 18th training

    I recently did the 18th Edition online course with XS Training. It's not a video-based course, but they have web pages (slides) for each section of the regs which allows you to go over the course material in your own time which I liked.

    2365 lvl 2&3 is it worth it?

    No, I finished the workbook back in December way ahead of anyone else in the class, and my tutor pretty much just gave me free reign on that wall.

    The latest MFT Meggers

    Bought one of these 1741's myself a few days ago, mananged to get the Bluetooth paired but the software wouldn't have any of it claiming I don't have the correct license.

    Multifunction Tester

    I spoke to them last Friday for a quote, in hindsight I probably should have asked them then, though in all honestly I was more focused on seeing if they would do me a discount :D

    I would agree that an EICR is a good place to start, that will flag up any remedial work that needs doing. As others have said, if newly qualified it might be worth getting a more experienced spark in to do an EICR
