    2392 Past Multiple Choice Exam Papers?

    Hello. Been asked to run a 2392 for a local company. Was wondering if anybody had any multiple choice questions they can expect in their exam, and/or some sample questions? It's at Level 2 so hoping it's not so tricky. Thanks in advance.

    How much do you strip back?

    I note some very neat an tidy consumer unit wiring in the installation photos above. Out of interest, how much excess conductor do you allow to cater for breakages or potential moment to a more distant connection point in the box? I appreciate that an excess of cable in a small CU is not...
