OK, we all have said a lot about this. Having met one recently I asked what his take home pay is. He gets a basic of £1000 and 20p for each test so to get another £1,000 he needs to do 5000 tests a month. That's before tax and NI!
So imagine working for that sort of pay for putting 5000...
Thank &%$£ the 18th hasn't introduced a load of new stickers for us to squeeze onto our DB's. Probably will be in the amendment next year....But for now I can content myself with only forgetting the mixed colours sticker, and the RCD sticker....Oh and the Safety Earth Connection label on the...
Hi
i saw a local electrician today with a nice shiny city and guilds qualified logo on his van.
Never seen this before apart from on a painter and decorators van a year or so back.
i had to go on the C&G website to get a replacement copy of my 2365 certificate. Whilst there i came across a...
I have an on going job at the moment and I am hoping to use this for my certified scheme assessment, just a quick one with the stickers; RCD test quarterly, Periodic inspection and mixed colours (existing installation) Can these be on the underside of the cover that you open for the CB's or do...
Hi
I made an ebay fan purchase fairly recently. I ordered what I thought was a MF100T, but was sent a Steeple SMF100T. It appears to be identical, was sent with the MF100T instructions, and has Manrose on the sticker. After a bit of internet research I've found out steeple is a Denman's own...
....... because we'd not put a 'solar pv on roof' sticker on the mains incomer and our deadline to correct this was today.
oops.
Luckily the customer wasn't on holiday so we got it done tonight, but that gave me a minor case of squeeky bumcheeks.
we did have a dual supply sticker, and the...
Hi to everyone

Being a proud competent electrician, you cant beat a few van stickers to tell people
1)who you are name phone number etc

So I am kind of lazy person, and in reality I tend to overthink every choice I make.
Do you guys write V.2 form with pen or print this on Laptop?
Because if you fill this with hand writing, I think it is best to get simplest portable PAT Tester with batteries, which will only do insulation and...
Hi everyone - just had a long chat with the lady from Trade Association | Vetted Tradesmen & Builders. From what I can gather it is a trade association offering Trustmark etc.... As a member of NAPIT I can get Trustmark, and get separate insurance backed guarantees from an insurer. I was looking...
Hi Guys
I've just completed my first 3 phase installation. A 3 phase CU (Proteus) in a church extension. There are 12 x 230V circuits feeding sockets , lights, heaters, etc.
1. Do you record all circuit test results on the same page or use one page for each phase?
2. Do you record Zs at DB...
Hi all
Been asked to quote for a board change. Had a quick look round the place and discovered lighting circuit has no earth. Where do I stand on this?
Current board is 3036s and will be replacing with rcbos as wiring is quite old. Will also be bonding the gas and water from 4mm to 10mm.
Ok so Firstly I own Manchester PAT testing company and our main approach is to try to educate people on PAT testing and periodic inspection and testing. So many people I speak to even people who claim to know alot about testing seem to think is it Law and I have seen on many of my competitors...
Morning Everyone.
Just about to have the van resign written after someone ran down the side of mine. So was thinking of putting the wording below on the van.
But not sure if:
I should bother.
If it's right.
Or is it just scaremongering?
Any comments would be welcome
"Did the last person...
I've got my first assessment on Tuesday. I've installed 2 new circuits in a flat (light and socket in the loft) for the purpose of the assessment. I haven't touched the rest of the installation.
