Hi Marcuswareham.
Just read your thread, just to change the subject slightly I'm going to do a 3 day course on BS 7909 in stevenage next week. Just wondering if you have any past exam papers that i can have a look at. Also can you tell me what type testing is involved in the exam .
Kind Regards

hello guys i used to be a maintenance electrician for a local council now im fully qualified to city and guilds and have an 18th edition update but i am not a test qualified, but what i want to know is do i have to do a R1 + R2 test and theres a few other tests i was told to do if i change a pendasnt or sw etc if this is true i can understand why so many electricians go out of the trade as its not worth the hastle

Hey, congratulations! You've overtaken my esteemedness ratio (reaction score/posts) and now leading by 0.34%. ISTR when Dan was first testing the automatic esteemed tag threshold it got set to a value where I was the only member with it.

Anyway, best wishes and have a great holiday

Hi Buddy, I read one of your posts about becoming qualified and having the work you have undertaken on your own home assessed. I think I am about to start a very similar course to the one you mentioned you had completed and was thinking about doing the exact same thing myself. I am moving into a new property in Feb that needs a full rewire. How have you found the process?

telectrix · Dec 8, 2020

earthing of lamps. multimeter on ohms. short leads together to prove ( should read close to zero. then 1 lead on earth pin of plug. other lead on metalwork of lamp. reading should be within 0.1 ohms of what you got with the leads shorted together.

Hello mate, not sure how much of an issue this one is for you but FYI I actually emailed a UKPN area engineer that I know last night to ask from the horses mouth. But, I'm now a bit confused as your profile says you're in Devon - that's Western Power, not UKPN?? I'm not far from you in Somerset, by the way.

buy the ebay PSU as posted. then you need to cut plug off lights and fit one of these instead. :

Hi bud, how have you got on with your search for work? I look after solar farms and could probably give you a week or two per month. Mainly non intrusive inspections but callouts and fault finding as you progress.

DH2133 · Nov 21, 2020

For terrestrial aerial amp and 8-way distribution I have a 19 yr old Labgear unit in my loft. Can I take a coax directly off the unit, down and through a plasterboard wall to a TV without using a screened wall socket and fly lead? What does the small PCB in a wall socket do and is it necessary?

WHAT ARE THE MOST COMMON INDOOR AIR POLLUTANTS IN FLORIDA?

telectrix · Oct 28, 2020

re amp question.it's 3A@ 12V so the current @ 240 is 20 x less than at 12V i.e 3/20 = 0.15A.

telectrix · Oct 19, 2020

the red marked L1 goes in the centre terminal of the dimmer. the red marked L2 goes in either of the end terminals. the 2 blacks go in a connector but not to the switch. and make sure you connect the earth wires to the earth terminal on the switch plate ( the brass terminal shown on botto right of photo.

Hi
Are you still after a multifunction tester? I have a Megger 1711 with a black megger holdall if you are interested.
18 months old, not required as I now also have a 1721

telectrix · Oct 1, 2020

over here, it was common practice back on the 60's and 70's that a hall/landing light would have the L (hot) feed from a downstairs circuit and the N from the upstairs. that could be similar to your scenario.

Jtools · Sep 29, 2020

Hi all, I've spent the last 12 years looking after my wife after she had an accident,
and recently completed my level 2 2365.
Now looking for ANY electrical work experience in the Tyne and Wear area.
Any assistance would be much appreciated.

telectrix · Sep 24, 2020

re. Hob.
the hob will never pull 32 A as the elements cycle on and off. even when all are on, except oninitial start-up, but the cable will withstand this for short periods. if you were to measure the current, you'd rarely see more than 10 - 15a at any time. so the Bosch cable will be fine.

Hi James

I hope you dont mind me messaging you, but i am also with stroma and considering signing up fully to napit next year, currently i have just paid extra for the napit EICR add on

How did you find them transferring over? have you had an assessment yet? if so how does it compare to stroma ones?

Thank mate paul

Sorry to hear about your accident, hope you have a fast and full recovery. Thought you had been a bit quiet recently.
I used to do a bit of diving too, just air to 30m.

Get well soon
