Cooker problem

[Geordie Spark]

When I say don't know a lot, I mean I don't know as much as a lot of people on this forum site. Only qualified 18 months ago, have not got the experience like a lot of you guys, still learning. I thought this site was to perhaps help younger inexperienced members, give advice if you can

You seem to be having trouble with your Echo Unit there son.

I was replying to Dillb's post. He was concerned I said " I don't know a lot".

I have thanked all the replies I have had as they have been useful info. Perhaps I did not explain my reply good enough. My apologies

Full scope NAPIT, 7 days at Napit main office, Mansfield I think it was.

 

[Plonker 3]

So that is the only qualification you hold?

 

[All Jobs]

Yes full scope

 

[All Jobs]

Looks like I got to buy an earth leak meter

 

[UKMeterman]

Yes full scope

My underestanding is that the Full scope qualification is an add on to the C&G...

Can't answer that one Ukmeterman, I don't know. I do a lot of work in kitchens/bathrooms, needed to get qualified to save having to call a sparky in to sign off works. This was course I was advised to do?

Sparkies should NOT be "signing off works" they should be designing, installing and TESTING and NOTIFYING the lot.

You aren't the dick who did the abismal install in West End, nr Woking are you?

Murdoch, this is a 10 year inspection report I have carried out. I got myself qualified so I could design, install and test and notify. Saved me having to wait on a sparky to do it for me. Nothing wrong with that is there?

 

[davesparks]

I actually listed it as PVC showing signs of deterioration. (PVC painted over, stretched around ceiling beams/timbers in the house etc). I use the wrong word "hard" above davesparks!!

Just trying to establish best way forward to sort this problem for the customer. Any further advice appreciated.

being painted over and neatly installed around beams is not deterioration of the PVC!

And if the pvc has deteriorated, especially to the point of needing to be replaced then I don't see how you can have assessed the installation as being satisfactory.

What qualifications do you have? I mean specific City and Guilds qualification numbers, not whatever 7 day nonsense the NAPIT crooks have conned you in to doing.

 

[UKMeterman]

Hi could you tell me how you meet 1.a, 1.b, or 1.c?

NAPIT - electrical

Thanks

 

[All Jobs]

It was a note with a recommendation that is all

 

[All Jobs]

1a, 1b, 1c. Don't know what you mean?

 

[Octopus]

Another cowboy....time to get my coat.

 

[davesparks]

But how can an installation need a partial rewire and be satisfactory? the two have surely got to be mutually exclusive?

 

[UKMeterman]

Please have a look at NAPIT - electrical it lists the qualifcations you need to have before being accepted onto the Napit course, and are listed as 1.a 1.b. and 1.c
