Bit embarrassed to be asking this. Its been a bad year.
Hi all. Back in January I did my City and Guilds 17th Edition Full 2382-12 IET level 3. Just to brush up, as I have been out of sparking for about 6/7 years (sparky for 12 years before that)
Was hoping to do 2391 - but had an accident...
Hi chaps,
As some of you may recall, I posted a while back about a dodgy electrician who did some work at my parents place, including putting in a circuit for a new induction hob, as well as a board.
He cocked a load of things up so following a complaint to the NICEIC, the guy came back today...
I'm looking for something which can hold 5+ of each drill bit 1.0-10.0 and .5s between. Any ideas? Can't find anything online, or maybe I'm not searching correctly

I enrolled on the 2392, realised i made a right cock up in doing so.
Its a little too basic really, should of gone for the new 2394/95 course i think.
Oh well, its another bit of paper for the records lol:angry_smile:
As title says, I'm going to my third survey in as many days tomorrow. Is this the sign of things picking up? Hopefully! Quoted two of them and their returns are better than they were two years ago.

Thought I'd make an introduction thread. Named it "Introduction Thread - 1" as I'm hoping it'll be too huge one day to really browse through so we can always make another with more up to date trainees and apprentices in it so it's all current.
So I'll start us off.

Hi all, just to let you know, well those of you who are left on here that is, that I also have decided to give up on renewables for a while anyway.

This is a prime example of why the invention of socket shutters in 1947 was genious! Even today in north america you risk been fried if you were to follow this helpful comment hahah
I was always led to believe throughout my time as a spark that when installing T+E cables in airing cupboards and cupboards under the stairs etc that are generally fairly inaccessible, you have to put the cables in PVC trunking (or similar) for extra mechanical protection, you can't just clip...
