Hello Guys & Gals,

I have my 205 exam coming up very soon. Has anyone got any old mock papers etc please?

Many Thanks,

Welshy.

 
You'll have no problems with the unit 4 online exam. H & S, tools, materials and the regulations.

I'll try and find my mock papers from last year if you'd still like them.

 
Oh Yes Please Mikey-c, i'd appreciate that, Mate.

Thank You.

 
I just thought of something - The 205 now is based on the 17th edition.

Shouldn't vary too much though?

 
Was typing then out on to here but got timed out! lol I'll try again in a bit.

Well I had a question last year that was def to 17th! About zones in a bathroom, and there was no mention of a zone 3. I think last years 2330 was a very inbetween regulations exam

 
I see,

Any luck on locating them, Mate?

d cable tray

12 When calculations show that the voltage drop between the supply terminals and a load will exceed 4% of the supply voltage the action to be taken is to

a limit the time the load is connected

b increase the supply voltage using a transformer

c increase the size of the cable supplying the load

d connect the load at off peak times only

13 To comply with IEE Wiring Regulations the voltage drop on a three phase 400v circuit should not exceed

a 4v

Thank You very much Mikey-c, I appriciate that mate.

 
No prob, glad to help. Got 2 more from last years smartscreen to type in. Tutor last year mentioned that smartscreen only has 2 sample papers per unit per year, so would be good for furture students if more sample papers are available here

Good luck with the 205, you'll past easy!

 
Thank you kind sir. Again, I appreciate it. :D

 
Finally did the exam Today.

Got a Credit, But that is what I get for going through it all again and changing some of my original answers.

Still - Better than failing. :D
