If your question involves additonal protection the answer is always 30mA. Never close your book the next question and answer is always nearby to where you are looking at the time. Read the question twice. 2hrs does not seem like much but its plenty of time. Pity you didnt mention it earlier ElectaCourse Home Study and Distance Learning Courses and Revision and Exam Aids do an exam simulator that really gets you up to speed and you can print the questions and answers out to know where you went wrong.



Good luck

Thanks ALL Thought that was a mith, the questions run from front to back, I've been looking in the book for the last two weeks and gone boss eyed

A friend of mine gave me some sample questions but it didn't register until the second paper that the question went from front to back glad some said it. THANKS again

Once the page has loaded,you can practice these papers online by clicking the relevant answer and then moving on to the next one.
Have a look at this mate,its 16th edition but a lot of the questions are in the 17th.You can practice all the time and you'll get familiar with them.I used it when i did my 17th in Feb

Very sorry to hear that Tony you got a link to an exam simulator in my earlier post dont bother with the course work just the simulator. When I started using it I was around the 50% area after a while with that I was constantly getting 100% when I took the exam itself I got 94%. Hope you crack it next time

Its now a clean book only so you get given one as you go in to start.

As above, but your tutor should tell what you can and cant do.

 

[chiggers]

been told at the college i'm taking my exam that the guilds haven't said no to post it notes in the regs book yet?!

the lecturer said until the guilds tell them otherwise we'll carry on so i sincerely hope so because my books loaded with post it notes for exam tonight!

studied solidly with simulators, past papers etc but if we do get handed blank books i wont be impressed

should be fine
