Replacing a BS3036 db to a new 17th Edition Dual RCD Consumer Unit

I have installed many in college but never replaced and old fuse board for a new c/u. It in a very old shop so was unsure if the main earth was adequate etc..

Did installaing a new CU not include checking / testing the earthing arrangements were adequate?

I think you know the answers to your own questions before you ask them.

As for offering to work for free, - bear in mind that someone is going to have to instruct you, and hopefully talk you through and explain what is being done and why. So it's not really free. Someone is still going to be making a considerable investment in their time and energy.

That said, you need to find some kind of company placement, because no one is going to employ you if you have loads of qualifications and no experience whatsoever.
