It will pretty much make you think about everything you have studied in the years running up to the exam. It's good that if you fail a section you don't have to re sit the whole thing. Just as 1960pje has said, if you start to panic you will begin to struggle. If it happens just put your tools...

The original installation was the grafik eye system which is publicly available and because the architect did not listen the job had to be upgraded and with the customer abit conscious to price etc the training course is abit late in the game to try and throw at them. I am only asking if anyone...

I have signed up to the lutron resource website but unless you have been on their course (which by the sounds of it they only tell you the basics for the software, it's mainly aimed at how to provide and select a system suitable to a property) they won't allow any access to softwares involved in...

I am currently installing a lutron Homeworks QS system to control lights in three different rooms of a house (please don't ask why only three it was put to customer about whole home but they didn't want it). I have sourced the parts but to try and keep costs of programming down I am in need on...

Just had a look at that link and the listing has been taken down.

How many panels are there? If there is an odd number then by the looks of the strings one isn't connected as the string voltages wouldn't be the same. Could do with checking the inverter for its readout of string voltages.

Sipgate make an app for iOS that can be setup to take calls over wifi but direct them to voiemail if not. It can be set to just take the calls over 3G but again it might eat up any data plan your on.

Congratulations bob, all the best for you and your growing family :-)

Worked on a place a year or two ago that had nearly every type of wiring still in use and it was only a three bed property. It had cotton covered singles in conduit, lead sheath twin, vulcanised Indian rubber T&E, imperial T&E, and both old grey sheath metric and white sheath metric...

Well atleast at your college your allowed to power it up and see that it works, the college I went to you had to prove it worked properly by testing only with a resistor soldered into a bayonet cap, you don't get that same sense of achievement in my opinion.

I wouldn't have thought so alpha. I would have thought if it tried a redirect, it will make safari load up if you use iOS or the browser to load on android, not 100% sure though.

A good free windows RAR program I found is RAR Frog, I've used it for quite a few years as when I was younger and was at school, buying software was a little low on my list as of not earning money and all that. I didn't want to get a hacked version either as never trusted computer program's...

Darn, I thought it was there to recover the kinetic energy from the gas and water flowing through your pipes, with the added bonus to save electric!! :o

I would say its metering possibly oil due to the type of connections as one of them looks very similar to the connection I had on an old moped it's like a eyelet with a hollowed out bolt, wouldn't have thought gas as under pressure of gas it might leak but fine with fluids. I live in a large...

If you mean that the PIR you are referring to allows you to incorporate a retractive switch, that would seem like a manual override to the presence detector part and just switch the load on for how ever long the timer is set for. I've seen one like it before but have never used one.
