[QUOTE="Joules, post: 547435, member: 35656"] Having read through the replies I was struck by the absence of something that should really be obligatory if natural selection is not to take its course. I refer to [I]Colour Blindness[/I] which the wok-ish changed to [I]Colour Vision Deficiency[/I] or CVD. I never took the test when I was an apprentice/electrician but did take it much later in life which thankfully confirmed there was no CVD present. When I was an apprentice there was a guy who had changed trades to become a pipe fitter something I simply could not understand because electricians as you know are the salt of the earth. It was explained that he had been forced to change because of CVD. Guess he had wired one too many red wires to an earth pin? 😲 [/QUOTE]
