Hi all, newby here.
My workplace has lots of electical distribution panels on site and they all have stickers saying last inspection 2007 next inspection jan 2010. Am I right to insist this is carried out? In the wood shop all the power saws have circuit breakers stating they need inspecting iaw BS7671 which I know is wiring regs. They too were due last Jan. Can I say it is law to have to get them inspected?
Little bit about my self: I run a calibration department hence get jobbed for all sorts of tasks. You all probably know the score. I got 16th edition regs 12 years ago when I left the navy but have never used it so am very rusty - just like all my electrical connections! This company is a great company but just like all the others they are mistaking Health & Safety for house keeping using desk jockeys to control it so they miss all the important stuff out here on site.
On a different tack:
What advice can i give to a young electrical apprentice here? Heis a bright lad but is fed up with not getting any electrical experience and is just used as a dogs body. He is three years into his college work. And says all his mates are earning good money in France!
Great site, cheers
