[sitja]

Hi guys hope someone can help me to understand this, even though im studying gas at the moment i unfortunately have a 'part' time teacher- or as it seems anyway!!

2 locate manufacture instructions and D.C left by installer

3 installed in accordance to M. instructions.

4 check general condition

5 correct flue size and terminal position

6 safe electrical isolation/bonding

7 electrical tests: short circuit, earthing etc.

8 let by test

9 soundness test

10 purge meter

11 correct ventilation

12 check meter standing pressure

13 correct polarity

14 check meter outlet working pressure

15 check burner inlet pressure

16 check min/max burner pressure (if applicable)

17 calculate gas rate and compare with instructions

18 heat input and compare

19 check boiler safety controls

20 locate isolation valve

21 plumbing checks

22 case seal test

23 combustion analysis/ performance

24 explain system operation to customer.

no commissioning the test boiler in the workshop. Remember now only at learning stage so would these steps be correct.?

All instructions for commissioning are in the MI's for each boiler and it varies from boiler to boiler.Just follow the MI's and use the skills you will learn in time.

so no one has any comments on this procedure, well apart from smart comments

He cannot use skills which he has not acquired yet.

But thats where his tutor should be teaching him.

I know that its good to get people to look thinks up in text books etc. but when they ask on the internet that bypasses the learning process.

My view is that only difficult questions should be asked here by trainees. All of them are meant to be getting practical training with a working RGI and that does not seem to be happening here.
