Hi,
A baseboard heater in my house emits a short buzzing sound every 30 seconds. It seems to happen only when the room is near the temperature I've set on my thermostat, that is, only when the heater is keeping the room at a certain temperature, and not when it's working hard to raise the...
Our company in the UK had its Periodic Inspection done over a year ago but now we’ve lost the EICR. We’ve contacted the company who did the inspection for another EICR, but they’ve said they have lost our report because of a server crash.
They’ve told us we have to have the inspection done...
Hello,
Does anyone know the requirements regarding the initial inspection and periodic requirements of domestic turbines?

Hi everyone,
Question about 2391-52 (initial verification and periodic testing)
A brief background to my situation; I do some in-house wiring for industrial applications, stuff like 3-phase motors, phase controllers, machines into spurs, that sort of thing. I’m not a proper spark & don’t...
Hi guys I’m not carrying out a periodic but have seen in a house a lighting circuit with no CPC which I know was acceptable at the time of install but the circuit contains class one equipment. The circuit is RCD protected but would this be classed as a C2 as the RCD can’t be relied on for fault...

1. Does this exam follow a sequential format as similar to that of the 2382-18...
Hi folks - new to the forums here. Forgive me if this isn't the right place to post. We have a small home, just moved in and noticing that 24 hours a day, once about every minute, ALL the lights in the house flicker at a pretty fast rate for about 10-15 seconds. It repeats this cycle 24 hours...

Hi am doing my first periodic inspection for a restaurant, my understanding is that I need to test a percentage of installation, so can I test some circuits and leave others? And if I could perform a certain test on a circuit how can I fill the schedule of results? Thanks
Hello everyone!
Has anyone been asked to test the main building incomers like ACBs as part of Periodic Inspection? If yes, do you give this part of the work to 3rd party? and what is the process and how you verify the report?

Hi. I've already got the initial insp. and test and want to do the periodic, EAL or C&G. I'm struggling to find anywhere that runs it around the Kendal/Lancaster/Preston area of the North West. Any ideas.
Hi guys.
