Westarted an electrical contracting company and the end of 2017 our test of the business. It went well and we used 2 electricians who are NAPIT approved.

Hi,
If you were to change a distribution board within an commercial environment, and you couldn't get access to circuits for R1R2/ Max Zs, previous test results saying unknown on circuits.
Surely you cannot issue an EIC Cert as you cannot verify circuits are compliant as it is virtually...

Having just paid another 10,000 shillings (a nod to telectrix) to my scam provider, I was thinking about a more concerted way of passing this on to my customers (sorry customers, but I'm doing this for a living). And there's the cost of certification, talking MEIWC & EIC, i.e. time taken to...

Question 1:
So if I...
