    Has anybody here actually failed an assessment form a governing body?

    Do they ever fail anyone? Some one I knew failed because he did NO prep work, no certs paperwork or anything! Is there any data on failed applications, and reasons why?

    I think I've failed the 2330 practical exam.

    In the end I wasn't even aloud to power my installation. The earthing terminal was somehow disconnected even though I didn't disconnect it. I also had to have extended time plus I was reading the location of the installations wrong. I thought that I had to choose installation location 4 because...

    Have I failed the 206 Exam?

What do you think...

    part p isn't working!

    WELCOME TO THE WEBSITE FOR tells us why ! Also why we can't rely on the likes of the NICEIC to do their job properly. By the way, if anyone has bought the guide book, can you tell us if it's worth 8 quid?

    Just had my installation failed- couple of answers needed please.

    Now I know I might get some raised eyebrows, or possibly shot down in flames, but I'd rather be honest than pretend that I'm a super spark who always does things by the book. Also, I should point out that I am a 35 year old approved spark, with my 2391, and I've just spent 3 months testing a...
