Ok, so I am in college studying a level 2 course (2365) and its coming to the end of year were we have to do a practical installation and then testing. I've taken the test once and failed.
My tutor, taught me and others things that are contradicted both in the On Site Guide, a book by Trevor linsley and a few other resources but we have to do it his way or we fail.
We have to do a ring final, radial, lighting circuit and bonding onto copper (gas) pipe. We wired the full thing in singles on 2.5mm and 1.5mm for the lighting circuit. The radial is Steel wired armour leading to a industrial socket.
I received the notice i failed and the reasons why. I failed on my inspection and testing. The reason i failed was because of the way i tested the bonding (gas pipe). I set my megger to ohms and then put on test probe on the earth terminal and the other directly applied to the pipe. I recorded my results as instructed to do so by my tutor in previous lessons and also recorded the testers serial number. This is why i failed but no explanation of what exactly it is i did wrong. Does anyone know? my resit is in a few days and im struggling to discover my error.
Sorry if this is in the wrong section
