Me too Al. Don't appear to much info on these exams. A few have done them though.

Oh Well. We'll do it the hardest way. (They probably had to) ]

Good Luck on yours.

Are these likely to be on all the papers? The papers apparently are Lettered A, B, C & D etc -- aren't they?

Cheers admin good luck to you as well,

I will keep looking around for any more info, if I get any I will post it in this thread

i think they are mainly for 302 paper i have heard 303 is similar though.

I found this info in another thread from someone who has taken exams if anyone has ideas on the answers or any other sample questions any contributions are welcome B-):

List operating voltages for selv, sodium lighting, 3 phase motor?

State three considerations to be taken into account when rectifying a fault in a busy work area?

State three factors which may affect carrying our repair work on an installation which is in use (very similar questions I know)?

Name the three forms which would be completed upon completion of a periodic inspection , state who determines the length of time between inspections, who completes the paperwork, and to whom the paperwork should be given?

There was a schedule of test results with 3 departures from 7671 which must be identified?

for a Ze test:

state why the circuit must be isolated?

state the reason for disconnecting the main earth?

i can't remember the third...

There was a simple lighting circuit diagram with three faults on it which you must identify

There was a more complex circuit diagram of a 2 way with intermediate lighting circuit and three roses, again there were 3 faults to identify

Thanks Guys,

I have set it up to automatically add the Tags. You can also enter them manually when you are typing out your thread.

The third way is to PM them to me and I will add them for you.

When I get some time (You can remind me ) I will adjust teh settings so that you all can edit / add the Tags after you have posted the Thread.

Hi all

I have got this exam in a few weeks and from my notes the questions could be, name the instruments you would use for dead testing and for live testing and state the settings of these instruments , the need to calibrate said instruments , fault finding and questions on safe isolation to name but a few. Good luck all those about to take the exam , I reckon it will be 2hrs of city & guilds at its best . there is always the pub afterwards !! Guiness Drink
