Thing is Specs, I was happy with the 16th but had to shell out for the 17th which I thought un-neccessary. Every year the re-calibration certs say "No adjustment required" ninety quid please !

I'm not sure about how accurate these recal tests are. I have four meters. Megger cm500, Di-log 9073, Robin loop tester with d-lok and new fluke 1652. Loop readings at socket at my house were.

Robin .48 ohms

Megger .98 ohms

Fluke .52 ohms

DI-Log .95 ohms.

I find it hard to believe they can be so far out. I would think the lower readings are more accurate.

completey agree - for part p the only actual costs are the scheme and notification costs. All the other costs (meters, calibration, insurance, literature, etc) should have existed and been paid before the scheme existed.

do your material costs include your mark up ????

I tend to quote my materials on typical costs that any Joe Public could obtain stuff themselves,

e.g. a quick scan around the average Internet or DIY store costs..

So any mark up tends to be the difference between say B&Q cost and what I can actually obtain from whichever supplier I can get the best deal from. And you don't get the customer saying .. Oh I can get one of them cheaper from the DIY shop!

e.g. I just had a delivery of CU, 8 drums & 2 cut lengths of cable this week,

e-mailed two suppliers got around
