Greetings all.
I am trying to get a few things straight in my head before Tuesday.
The main thing I am not sure about is this three phase motor starter.
The way I was gong to tackle it was to R1+R2 it.
Starting at the DB link L1 -E, get examiner to hold contactor and measure at the socket and...
Howdy folks.
It seems quite a few of us did the 2391 on the same night so I am guessing a few of us will be doing the practical soon.
It would be good if we could discuss any issues.
I have a link to a thread that Bruce Lee gave me and I hope he doesn't mind me posting it here.
It really is...
Hi,
was wondering if anyone in the sheffield area was willing to take on a NVQ 3 qualified electrician. I'm wanting more experience before I start to take on work. The only catch is I'm still working full-time (not in the electrical industry) so any saturday work for free labour would be much...

I started my first weeks practical last Monday and must admit I am a little disappointed. me and around 10 others arrived at Watford centre and within 30 mins of talking we got given paperwork of 2 lighting circuits (Pretend upstairs and downstairs) and had to start from scratch straight from...

Any help is much appreciated

I am being offered Sanyo HIT panels at a fair hike in cost, but supposedly they are much more efficient (and also happen to fit my awkward roof quite well). Has anyone used these, and how much better is generation vs monocrystalline?

last time i passed my 2391 was ten years ago,since then i have had about 2weeks testing experience 5years ago and it is amazing how much you can forget unless you are testing on a fairly frequent basis.Or have a bloody good memory!!!!.Thats why dedicated testers always seem to be very quick.I...
Does anyone know what the paperwork prior to the exam consists of and what the actual diagram is for the practical.
Besides being informed of a 3-d cubicle, what else should I be wary of ?; such as the actual circuit diagram; the tests etc.
Kind Regards.

I am having a bit of a problem with my local college. I passed the 2391 written exam way back in March this year. The results didn't come through until late June due to the papers having to be remarked.
My college lecturer said that he would contact us once we had passed in order to organise...
I am trying to get myself an apprentice, I've passed the theoretical side of the test, however I've now got to pass the practical, I have no knowledge of electrical equipment as of yet. Has anyone done a practical test and what should I expect, what tools am I likely to use?
Kind Regards and...
Help please guys, got my 2391 practical in the morning and got a few last minute questions.
I've never done 3phase testing before, having had a glimpse at the test rig, do I isolate the 3 phase board from the seperate isolator or just from the main switch inside the board. If it's from the...
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...
In the practical preparation which I have on monday next week, do I write down the tools that I will be needing aswell or just the equipment?
I posted a thread before on this but no one really said anything about tools.
But I am not sure if they told us to improve on the stuff I had already...
Hello, everyone.
I have always been pleasantly surprised by the amount of people who have provided me helpful information and tips in the past on this forum, so I am appealing to everyone's good nature to hopefully help me out again!

Good day,

1. When carrying out a IR test on...
