Well done Steve.

Well done for passing and well done for not spending £400 on a course that most people do not need.

I remember a question from the 16th exam, for which I have never been able to find the answer in the book.
Start up current for fluorescent light fittings is 1.5 X, 1.8 X or 2.3 X running current.

I got taught to use a 1.8 multiplier when calculating FLC for discharge lighting circuits so I would have gone for that.

Ditto, I did the course, which consisted of the trainer reading quickly through each chapter and then handing out mock questions. If a student got a question wrong, we were directed to the correct reg for the answer. Hardly instructional.

My assessor last year said it was about time I took the 17th. I'd managed to avoid it for about 3 years which I thought was pretty good going.

Just as by the way, I thought 17th Ed was a prerequisite qualification for a Scheme membership or are we talking of another assessor?
