2391 Practical Visual Inspection

[CRAGS]

Hi Guys, Getting a bit concerned now about these 12 faults you HAVE to find for the visual inspection on the 2391 are they in your face faults or have you really got to look out for them???? Worried that I may fail for missing one of them.

Most of them are pretty easy to spot. Labels missing, swa no shroud etc etc.

My main concern is a incorrect size cable or earthing conductor really need to brush up on this a bit more

thats the easy part,as its a visual you may even find 20 or so faults,cpc not sleeved,no wiring colour change labels,just look for the most obvious at first,list them,then start delving into the more time consuming ones,i had a list of 25 and the assessor was happy after about 2 mins,goodluck.just dont panic and you will be fine,

We have being told there is 12 specific ones that C&G want you to find you can list 20 but if you miss one of the 12 then Game Over !!!!

When I did it we were told the same. That the intended faults would be obvious and not to be recording something which may have been caused by someone else tugging too hard on conductors etc. "Don't be writing any stupid s**t" or you will fail was the advice.

You should be OK - but don't end up with 20 faults! There is Internal and External Verification.

Is the next step in the practical test the Insulation resistance test?
