Can i sign a pir?

i followed 1 last month where he's put a code 1 for undersized tails, but completely missed the burnt and dangerous connection on the main switch incoming L. ( wylex rewireable board )

Yes, similar thing here, code 1 for 'undersized 16mm tails' yet he identified the suppliers fuse as a BS88 60A.

Seriously though, actually putting in writing that 'upgrading the tails will rectify the high Zs' is just amazing!!

Do you mean City & Guilds 2382? If so, this is just a multiple choice regulations exam and NOT a testing qualification...

Our main business activity is periodic inspection & testing and while there is no absolute requirement for 2391-10, can you imagine the opening words in a courtroom if the brown stuff ever hit the extract?

"Is it true to say that you have no formal qualification in electrical testing & inspecting?"


Competency is a whole mixture of criteria from experience, vocabulary, terminology and formal qualifications and while PI insurance will cover any legal and compensation fees, it will not keep you out of court and anywhere that a bad verdict might lead to.....

This was not just a just multiple choice exam. It was that and the practicle module and the practicle in the FICA.

I spoke to SELECT there and the guy told me that im fine with the qualifications that i have to go ahead with PIR's.

As I said, I'm not saying you are or are not competent, I'm saying that your testing modules and practical will have been based on initial verification only, the 2391-10 is the only qualification that is geared towards periodic inspection which is vastly different to initial verification.....
