I am being offered Sanyo HIT panels at a fair hike in cost, but supposedly they are much more efficient (and also happen to fit my awkward roof quite well). Has anyone used these, and how much better is generation vs monocrystalline?
last time i passed my 2391 was ten years ago,since then i have had about 2weeks testing experience 5years ago and it is amazing how much you can forget unless you are testing on a fairly frequent basis.Or have a bloody good memory!!!!.Thats why dedicated testers always seem to be very quick.I...
Does anyone know what the paperwork prior to the exam consists of and what the actual diagram is for the practical.
Besides being informed of a 3-d cubicle, what else should I be wary of ?; such as the actual circuit diagram; the tests etc.
Kind Regards.
I am having a bit of a problem with my local college. I passed the 2391 written exam way back in March this year. The results didn't come through until late June due to the papers having to be remarked.
My college lecturer said that he would contact us once we had passed in order to organise...
I am trying to get myself an apprentice, I've passed the theoretical side of the test, however I've now got to pass the practical, I have no knowledge of electrical equipment as of yet. Has anyone done a practical test and what should I expect, what tools am I likely to use?
Kind Regards and...

In the end I wasn't even aloud to power my installation. The earthing terminal was somehow disconnected even though I didn't disconnect it. I also had to have extended time plus I was reading the location of the installations wrong. I thought that I had to choose installation location 4 because...
In the practical preparation which I have on monday next week, do I write down the tools that I will be needing aswell or just the equipment?

But I am not sure if they told us to improve on the stuff I had already...

Good day,
I am looking for a training course (practical & theoretical sessions) in electrical system.
In fact, I am a new electrical engineer and I need to enhance my knowledge and my experience by attending such courses or even better to have an attachment with official companies.

I know this has been posted on here a few times, but I have my 206 exam Monday.
It seems to differ slightly from college or center depending on where you take the exam.
This is what I have had to do as prep work so far.

I don't know if this is of any use, but I undertook my 204 exam today, passed with an distinction. I found it pretty easy and if there is anyone about to take it, don't panic or worry. It's a pretty simple exercise in taking a few readings and documenting them. You also have to explain why the...
