do you mean 3 tests using 3 senses ?

I heard some arching noises,smelled burning and saw the problem
When I touched the cable it was hot
No need to taste it though

On last weeks exam, one question asked for 3 examples of an inspector using the sense of touch.

 

[Notsosmart]

Damaged cable sheath or accessory ~ ie cracked socket face
Overheating
Unsuitable erection method ~ ie loose CU
Damaged cable entry ~ Sharp edges
IP2X contravened.

There are a couple of others but they escape me at the moment.

Most of the above should be done with power isolated & as part of initial verification.

As Des has pointed out smell & hearing should be utilised too.
