Hi I am looking for advice please.
Last week I done my am2. And the only thing I failed on was safe isolation of the 3 phase circuit.
The assessor told me to safely isolate the 3 phase isolator.
So I turned of the isolator put a lock and tag on and put the key in my pocket.
I then proceeded to lift up the red cover on the 3 phase 16a socket outlet. And I used the GS 38 approved voltage indicator and put the probes into the holes on the socket.
I tested on the proving unit before and after the test and I completed all 10 tests between the conductors.
Can anyone tell me where I went wrong please?
Was I right to lock of the isolator or should I have locked of the 3phase circuit breaker on the dB?
Was I right to test at the socket with my voltage indicator or should I have took the cover of the isolator and checked on the outgoing terminals of this??
Any help would be appreciated thanks.
Tom
