So do you mean remove the pipe from the top of the cylinder and Syphon out from there as oppose to using the drain valve?

How predictable were these responses.. I should never say I was a spark. Is there no quicker way then Syphoning?

Hello, I'm an electrician and getting several jobs where elements require replacement. Currently use good old gravity to drain them or sometimes a pump that fits on your drill. I think its time i bought a decent electric pump to speed the process up. Can anyone recommend an electric pump or...

Can I see your 'box'

Well this certainly started a debate... I suppose at least the 9 resisters I found do come in a box, I'm not sure what they'd look like without it.;) Ok so maybe I'll speak with the NIC when they carry out my assessment. I think as long as I get a new calabration certificate for then it'll be...

Thanks for all the replies. I think I will just have It calibrated for assessment any how and then buy a check box. I found one for £35 which is a fraction of the price of a transmille. http://www.tester.co.uk/calibration-checkbox?gclid=CNKxibKB88YCFa3MtAod_iwOww Take a look, what do you think?

Hello all, I'm in the process of becoming NIC registered and just waiting for my assessment date now. One thing I need to get in place is an accuracy record of test instruments. In my current job we use a transmille every month to monitor the test kits but I don't really want to fork out for...

Thank you all, very helpful.

Can I still use amendment 1: 2011 forms until I have used them all. Or should I dispose of them and use only amendment 3 now? Thanks

Thanks for the replies. I was wondering if you could back date them after your a member. I'll speak to them Monday..

I'm going to be joining the NIC or possibly napit in the next month or so. However, I have some jobs coming up in the next week that are notifiable. I don't want to pay building control of my local authority a fortune for this as I might as well work for free otherwise. These jobs I have coming...

Hi, Can anyone recommend a company that can manufacture bespoke emergency conversion packs I can add to a number of light fittings in mansion block. The lights are brass chandeliers and looking at adding a large brass base which will house the inventor and led lamps. I've seen them on my...

I find side cutters best for removing them, if it's a bad one sometimes followed by some insulation tape maybe required, aka electricians plaster..😷

After 15 years in the trade, I like to think so. As for bas and his splinter removal I can't answer that..

Yes fair point..

I was not fully aware of the difference to be honest. I know a domestic installer Can act like a 'bolt on' so other trades can part p their works. Although I've seen a lot of electricians vans that state they are domestic installers and I think this is where the confussions come from.

That's not a problem, I have all qualifications in place and also a qualified supervisor for the company I currently work for..

Ok. You will need more than registration for commercial work. What do you mean by more than registration? More than a domestic installer?

I haven't looked into them to be honest. I'll look into them. Another thing I was interested in with the NIC was the online certificates that I could complete on my iPad or phone. Do Elecsa do any online certificates or certification software, also do Napit have mobile certification software?

Hi all, Looking for some advice and recommendations. I'm finally considering going out on my own after 15 years of working for a company and looking at joining the NIC or Napit. My work will mainly be domestic installation and maintenance work, condition reports and some commercial...
