First post so Hi!
I'm taking my AM2 next week and was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to prepare - any circuit diagrams around regarding landlords override switch and a two way and intermediate lighting circuit, any pictures or videos about terminating MICC, etc?
Also, wish me luck.
I am thinking of taking someone on as an apprentice. I have been told that if I do, their training provider, in this case Gloucester College, will want to come and see me for a safety audit. Has anyone had any experience of what this involves.
Thanks
Dan

thanks
