I did an MEng in Electronic and Electrical Engineering 15 years ago and I was more worried about this exam than my degree!! I think it's got a bit of a reputation and that alone makes it daunting! It's not an easy exam and you do have to really know your stuff and then they can throw you a...

Really? Excellent!! I got his book when I did the 2391 and watched his videos on YouTube!!

I took mine on the 9th June, the official results came through on the 8th August, but I found out 5 days before that from the college. I was told 45 days but it actually took 55 days and 60 days. MMmm that was a long winded way of saying 60 days!! :|

Yeah dude happy Birthday!! You know it's all down hill now!!

After hearing that Paul had passed I got straight onto Peterborough Regional College. Yipeeeee!!! A few Guinness tonight!! I am not thinking about the morning :coffee

Well done Steve, did you take your exam on the 9th June? I am waiting for my results, I am a bit 50-50. Oh well it should be with me very soon :| ---------- Post Auto-Merged at 13:09 ---------- Previous post was made at 12:57 ---------- I was told the March paper was a bit of a beeeeatch...

I went to the Edinburgh fringe last year, one the shows was Faulty Towers "The Germans" episode. They had recreated the faulty towers restaurant perfectly. You could actually go in and sit down at a table in the restaurant and the sketch was recreated around around you. It was a cracking idea...

Go back to 70s early 80s TV and watch some of the stuff that was on. One I watched recently was The Generation Game with Larry Grayson, talking about his mate Ever Hard. I was shocked, this was on Saturday Night prime time and the stuff he was coming out with, I guess back then it was such an...

I reckon you have a dodgy clamp on metre and it's picking up something else nearby? Maybe Radio 4? I would as a test, check the compressor's insulation resistance down to earth, if it is a significant value 200M ohms + then disconnect the earth from it and measure it again, see what you get...

You are right Deke the voltage must be astronomical!!

I did 10 weeks at Peterborough Regional College sat the exam on the 9th June, still waiting for the results. :z Its a 2.5 hour exam Part A short answer and Part B larger more in depth answers needed. There is a practical part takes about 4 hours, not done that yet end of August.

I have been using a Megger MFT1553 for a year and can't fault it, best tester I have used, however I have never used any Kewtech gear.

In the meantime mate stick an advert in your local paper, you will be surprised and the benefits of working for yourself are second to none!!

I always do a full PIR before I start as a matter of course, but this doesn't stop appliances creating a problem for you or borrowed neutrals in the upstairs downstairs lighting circuits, so you can't separate the upstairs and downstairs lighting onto two RCDs without a massive investigation...

25 metres long and 563 Kilometres in diameter, sounds about right!! The house will probably be in constant shadow so the lights would be handy and it will be easy for Santa :Welcome: to find his house. ---------- Post Auto-Merged at 20:44 ---------- Previous post was made at 20:27 ----------...

I would not think so. Some people have an upstairs ring and a downstairs ring and that's it. Just label it up identifying the circuits on the C.U. and on the Installation Certificate under circuit designation write "front room, hall and kitchen" for that circuit, sorted!

^+1 The kitchen does not have to be on it's own circuit as long as you label it up.
