Thank you for contacting City & Guilds Customer Relations.
With regards to the 2391-301 Technical Knowledge of the Inspection, Testing and Certification of Electrical Installations. I can advise that due to centre demand and the need for potential re-sits, there will be an additional date for the dated entry written paper which will be March 14th 2013, this will be the final date.
There will not be a February exam series in 2013 and there will be no further exam date

sat mine in june & failed, but they dont let you know what you failed on or how close you were to passing. i think they should give you some feedback so you know where to concentrate you efforts for the next time. Got a re-sit next week so fingers crossed!

pay particular attention to correct terminology - lots of marks lost due to this.

 

[steveeo]

correct terminology & read the questions properly!! a crafty one this....
state three provisions for basic protectionthat may need to be inspected in a domestic installation - 3 marks...

bs7671 requires that provision for basic protection is provided by one or more of the following methods;
insulation of live parts
installation of barriers or enclosures
obstacles
placing out of reach
SELV or PELV
double insulation
reinforced insulation

no marks would be awarded for obstacles, placing out of reach, double insulation and reinforced insulation!

A classic, this one. Its about thinking about what you are doing. No marks will be awarded as you correctly say, because you wont come across them in a domestic environment.

Heres another to catch you out.

State three special locations which you could normally expect to find in a domestic environment. BEFORE you answer it, a word of warning, DONT PUT YOUR PART P HEAD ON.

Cheers.............Howard
