Hi guys, what are your thoughts on Stroma certification body? I'm starting out and therefore want to keep costs down. Initially I was going to go with NICEIC due to most people being familiar with the body. However since thinking about it, Stroma is 1/4 of the price of the NICEIC Approved...

2. For instance, with the 2394/2395 Multiple choice, you can receive the result straight away (from the centre), & the "Notification of candidate result" is then sent to you. Is this...

Any ideas on a system to notify a client if the power trips off? Ideally a call or sms to their mobile. It's to avoided wastage of chilled/frozen foods.
I've just come to the end of a large domestic re-wire and I'm using it for my NAPIT inspection. The problem I have is that the builders I am working for need it signed off 'NOW'! by building control, but my inspection isn't for a couple of weeks yet. Is it acceptable to complete the Electrical...
