Certificate Software - time to change?

Another Vote for EasyCert, it keeps getting better features all the time. I'll dig out a couple of videos if anyone wants them let me know (I've done some vids for others to see so that they can see how to use it).

Pat certificate.

PAT Testing First of all, we have all heard that 'I will give you loads more work' (or I own lots of houses!) nonsense before and surely nobody is still silly enough to fall for that!? Lol These people are looking for cheapest price, and we are businesses, not charities! Tell them to do it...

Certification software

I have both desktop and iPad version, but have done all my inspections so far purely on the iPad, and sent the electronic version of the certificate to customers. This is a huge time saver, unless a customer requests a printed certificate (particularly the NICEIC version), as then it has to be...

Easy PAT on the other hand, appears to be pretty useless on the iPad, at least in the way I use it (i.e. do tests on megger PAT 4D/V and then upload results to Easy PAT) - this appears to be easier on a laptop as far as I can work out so far.

Easy Cert on the iPad is fantastic, it is SO much quicker, and just send certificates by email when done. Until recently the certificates were not fully completing, but I believe the recent release fixed this (as well as giving the new format Inspection forms for Amendment 1).

Megger 1553 with iPad?

'Rampage' did you ever get this to work? Curious as I am looking at getting an iPad and being able to do my certification (both installations and PAT testing), and maybe quotes too. There does seem a lack of applications at the moment.

Certification software

There really is a lack of apps at this point for iPad, as I am ready to jump on the bandwagon as far as diary, crm, etc etc, but just need my technical software (I use easycert) and Easy PAT to be added confidently. Any PAT Testing iPad apps? Are the apps quicker to use (i.e. add data as well...

Zero resistance for L-N doing IR test

As already stated, the method using LN - E together as a limited test is also useful and a valid test (but comment as a limitation that this is what you are doing on the report), and is being used more and more in these situations. Also agree that there may still be something 'unconventional'...
