[Pete ball]

I'm doing my domestic installer examination on the 20th sept with the nic eic ! Getting a bit nervous about it now lol ! just wondering if any had any tips on what to expect on the day ! Thanks

Just make sure you have all your paperwork and books in place and you will be fine.
Some inspectors can be a bit arsey but they still want your business so dont worry too much

 

[Pete ball]

Thanks for that ! In paper work do u mean regs book and stuff like that ?

 

[Ses2010]

Yes but also complaints log, calibration sheets, jobs logbook etc
Ive got my niceic approved contractor reassessment tomorrow and last year he picked me up on that stuff

 

[Pete ball]

My test gear is brand new so don't have any calibration sheets , sorry to sound a bit daft but what do u mean by complaints log ?an jobs logbook ?

 

[Ses2010]

You should have a sheet for recording complaints etc
You need to keep a note of all jobs you have done and do
You should test your meter on a socket in your house once a month and record results

 

[Pete ball]

To be honest haven't had a complaint yet and did think u had to record them if u get one ?

 

[Ses2010]

I have not either but i still need a sheet
It may be different as its your first assesment
They should have sent you a checklist

 

[Pete ball]

Yeah and thats not on it that's why I asked! does the examiner just watch u test and ask loads of questions ?

 

[Ses2010]

Pretty much its real easy to pass the DI
