I never doubted they would pass up on another member  Moosey .....but well done  :Applaud

 

[moose man]

thanks for reply's

did pull me up on one thing

I installed a new 3 phase board which I used as example

one think wrong was I did not number conductors l1 l2 l3 but board was as l1 l2 l3 and triple pole

new circuits brown black grey used no old colours

may be I read the reg wrong thought only numbers required if using all the same colours

or interconnection with old and new as table 7a appendix 7 on 3 phase circuits

that's all he picked up on

you thought correct. must have been a 5DW assessor

 

[Sidewinder]

Moose,

You are correct, see reg 514.3, 514.4.4 & table 51 in the BGB.

 

[Andy™]

did / do you have to correct anything to pass? if so, make a complaint

actually, id complain either way. sending someone to assess your knowledge of regs when they dont know themselves isnt very good

Hi moose man,

Tea and biscuits sounds suspiciously like Kevin Meehan to me.

If it is, then Kevin is a 5 Decade Wonder  Assessor!!

I think some of them strive to find something to pick up on just to show they're doing their job ...just forget the nonsense till next year .

 

[moose man]

no revisit or correction required just a bit puddled why he pick me up on that should have got him to show me why it was wrong

in the regs as paddler said but as evens says passed for 12 months

much appreciated on replys thought I was going daft as kept reading reg and could not understand why I was picked up

Moose,

You are correct, see reg 514.3, 514.4.4 & table 51 in the BGB.

My usual guy is great but some of the others .................firing questions at you until they trip you up ......and they will because they live & breathe the regs        But like Kerch & a few others ...I don't carry all this stuff in my head ....I know what is important , I know the everyday stuff  ....I didn't need that lecture on  isolating a circuit  FFS  after 100 years in the trade .........   anything else I have a £70 book I use to look it up .   ( And a Forum)

Actually since the 17th edition kicked in  .I have three  £ 70 books and 300 On Site Guides  .     All we needed back in the day was The BICC Electrician's Mate booklet & a  Letts Electrical Diary.

Agree with Deke

And if I get really stuck then I can get out my Online Silver subscription receipt and LOOK at it....the receipt that is. As the online version DOES NOT WORK ON MY IPAD.......roll on tomorrow and my meeting with The IET
