I was wondering if I were to try and get work in another country, say Middle East or Canada, could...
Trying to fill out my ECS gold card application online with their website app, it tells me I need to be endorsed? I do work for a jib member company but on a self-employed basis. So my question is do I have to be endorsed?
I achieved my 236-1 and 2 between the years 1992 and 1997. I have just received my AM2 certificate. I have been working as an electrician for over twenty years. Can I now apply for a jib card with what I’ve got or will I need to do an nvq3.
thanks in advance.

I think it's only a matter of time before the rest of the UK follows suit.

Also just revising: trying to apply a rating factor for insulation on a cable calc. Just in theory, it's not for an actual job.
The cable will be clipped direct to joists above ceiling and is covered in >100mm thermal insulation. I cannot find the correction factor for insulation. Advice please!
