not yet. have started my own company part time (with my dad). altho recently ive had to turn down a lot of jobs due to part p fee's (£100 ontop of a re-wire aint too bad, but £100 ontop of a kitchen socket is way OTT). now just need to get a (calibrated) tester and im ready to go! (hopefully)...

not too bad. surprised people actually remember me! (been gone for months and i still have a higher post count!)

can you remember ANYTHING about how it was wired? go get yourself a multimeter and learn to use it.

thanx for the link. will contact them to find out exactly what they want to look at, but all they say is one job

not think about looking to see what went where before starting? and reds to each common is the most logic thing, but why is there a link?

finally gonna become part p registered... having to turn down too much work... anyway... who has done the assessment for it? should be OK with it, but what exactly what do they look for? i know they want to see some examples of your work etc, so would it be best to show them something like a...

the formula part could be done in excel, but the database cant. the vat and adding up parts aint too important, could easily manage them with a calc if needed. most important part tho is in the form, getting it to find the record i type rather than change currect record

basically i have a database in access. but i need it to do some excel stuff. i have a column 'total 1', 'total 2', 'total price', and 'vat' what i need is for 'total price' to add total 1 and 2 together. vat needs to take number in total price and -15%. any ideas on this? and no, this cant...

there isnt just the NIC, you can use anyone. just because there NIC reg'd doesnt mean there not gonna cut corners

doing the wiring is pretty time consuming. he'll probably tell you what he wants where etc, ad maybe leave boards up etc so he can see. he can then do the 2nd fix. not much wrong with it, but many sparks would rather do the entire thing themselves. from a legal POV, anyone can do electrical...

by gettin some cable, socket and backbox! search for adding spurs etc for what to do (basically, just take a feed from CU as spur from ring )

im aware of why its tested before/after etc (after all, it could fail just after your first test and could leave a circuit 'dead' when it is infact live). which is what my way of testing does, and so does the way the college says. its mainly the testing live of circuit to be isolated that they...

yea, popular one is what should be used for 3 phase isolation. always have TP-N isolator and 4 pole isolator and 2 others for answers. some lecturers say go for 4 pole isolator and some say TP-N...

i would recmmened gettin a new alarm panel/bellobx. you might get away with existing contacts/wiring. where abouts are you?

thx for the help/suggestions i know the only thing with my way is it wont work if circuit to be worked on is already dead, but what was being isolated was already live. id rather flick the breaker on/off a few times to make sure its definatly that breaker than follow whatever the college...

college lecturers no nothin... again. basically, i say: test circuit is live switch off check dead test tester on known supply/proving unit lock supply off/keep key they say this is wrong and it must be: switch off test tester on known supply check circuit is dead test tester...

a door entry for someone who cant easily get to the door. ive fitted them before using the lock that releases a yale lock, but not sure which is the best way with a UPVC door

ive been nowhere. just got sick of the place so left. there was a thread about it but the mods soon deleted it
