So today at college i started my 302 practical exam. (Testing and inspection) The Rig i was working on was baffling and when i asked my tutor he said there was a good chance that it had just been re connected wrong by the last student to use it..... So i had a quick break went back to it this time on my own my tutor had gone by now and just the technician was there.

Being the helpful good person i am i thought i would rewire it correctly then continue with my 302 as it was going to be impossible as it was....

Half way through doing this i called over Dave (The technician) for some help and advice...

He was not pleased when he saw the i had started to fix all the faults that he had built into the rig!:skep:

Yeah that's right i did not know that there was inbuilt faults no one told me and no one told me that i was just meant to write down what i found. From what my tutor said i thought it was just a shambles from the last student.

Anyways there's a cheap laugh for everyone.

Will try again Thursday *SIGH*
 
302 and yeah but thing was this rig was just beyond it i didn't think it could be this bad and they still want me to test it i would have to of moved bits and bobs anyways i mean there was two 2.5 lines going into the earth terminal! (turns out they where for the ring) but that even has a 1.5 neutral going into the RCBO....


So you can see where i was like well this is just stupid.
