1)Users of equiptment have a legal resonsibility to comply with both health and safety at work act and electricity at work regulations which of the following is NOT such a responsibilty
a. Replace the fuse in the plug top following a fault
b. regulary inspect equiptment
c. assess the suitability of equiptment for continued use
d. Label, report and withdraw from service faulty equiptment.
2) The purpose of insulation resistance test is to ensure
a. fuses are adequate rating
b.insulation has not deteriorated below acceptable levels
c.the value of insulation resistance is below 1 M ohm
d. that live conductors are connected together

3)During an earth continuity test on an appliance the result keeps rising the most likely fault would be
a. loose connection in the plug top
b. too high fuse rating
c.insulation fault in the cord
d.incorrect polarity at the socket

4)extension lead lengths are limited by the:
a. type of cord material
b.total power rating of the equiptment
c. current carrying capacity of the cable
d. voltage drop

5) after comparing the results of previous and present tests, deterioration in class 2 equiptment would show as:
a. higher insulation resistance values
b. lower insulation resistance values
c. lower earth continuity values
d. higher earth continuity values


MANY THANKS
