Hi All
Recently joined the forum to ask for some information.
I recently bought a flat to let. I was advised by the letting agent to get the electrics tested, although not a legal requirement. The test was carried out by their electrical contractor. He failed the test due to the fuse board not...
Been on a job today and the set up is a TT, well at least supposed to be, its a small area on edge of Chippenham.
The guy who lives there had a rewire under the 16th edition, he has a 100mA rcd as the main switch with lights, freezer and outdoor lights on, then a 30mA covering everything else...
Does anyone on here use Icertifi?
I have tried their free trial for an domestic electrical installation certificate, but I am having real problems with it.
I enter my data into the schedule of test results and then try downloading it, but every time I do this there is loads of data missing.
Can...
Has anyone left a college course without completing all the modules and gone back and completed them?
I'm a module short and I have no idea how to get it done, I've contacted the college but they're telling me I need to re-enroll and complete the whole course again.

I been around for a few years, but have never been involved in shopfitting in any depth. However on the odd occasion I have dipped into it I have always been disappointed with the standard of work. .. cables slung across ceiling tiles, no grommets, taped connector joints on lighting etc . ...
just a quick one, having a debate onsite what code to give to this dB. We have a dB which is missing a few blanks from the cover, the dB is located within a electrical switch room which is locked and only access by singing and filling out a permit. Due to the room being locked and a permit...
What would the code be on a spur flex outlet, that has the cap missing for where the flex should be? Looks like flex outlet for appliance isn't required and been removed, there fore cap has gone missing.
Picking up reports with it down as C2 and C3.

Hi,
Any advice on this would be appreciated. I am planning on getting our new 1960’s house rewired which is not something I have done before. One requirement is my other half wants lots of light, our old place was too dark! We plan on moving a couple of doors/walls slightly so a change from...

Morning. A friend and I have been carrying out some EICRs on properties in our area. Recently, my mate has come across two houses in which the lighting circuits do not have any earthing at all. They have been run in twin and earth but the earths have all been snipped off at lighting points...
for some reason I'm struggling with resistors more than anything else in the electrical science (202/203) course material.
I have a table with 6 examples, each having 3 resistors in parallel and a total resistance. Problem is a lot of the figures are missing and the question asks to find the...

Hi
I wanted some feedback from you guys and some advice and opinions. I am starting to get a lot of domestic EICR requests but when I send a quote I never hear back from them. I am quoting around £350 for a 3-4 bedroom house. Most don't have not had prior PIRs so I recommend a 50 - 100% on...
