@ArtElectrics You would have agreed to that exam in your contract at the time of his enrolment as entry requirements are quite clear.

What college is he doing his apprenticeship through?

@welshdragon1979 @Monty_Electrics @dickllewellyn @sparkypete_ @electrician_247 Got to remember the decimal point between the two tests

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@electrician_247 @JordeeBrompton @myenergiuk Surely @myenergiuk, @JordeeBrompton or @au_tom_otive have to actually give an answer to installer or press updates now as this is massively damaging the brand amongst installers by ignoring it every time the question is asked by their customers. The electricians.

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@au_tom_otive Hey @au_tom_otive not sure if my original post didn’t send on this. I understand your concern around the cellular but with hidden costs has my energi done anything about the warranty issues from their previous instructions of not needing RCD’s for installers.

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@neilbridgeman @jesseb4me @myenergiuk @JordeeBrompton And are still not coming back with any comments.

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@jamieblatant @au_tom_otive @au_tom_otive what was the outcome around this?

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@contactelectri3 @vitaelectrical @ChrisRuddock2 😂

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

Random post and thought for genuine opinions based on some documents I have been reviewing.

Is a socket, one point or two points of utilisation?

Should you count a light switch as a point for certification?

How and where do you draw your reason and justification for this.

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@JordeeBrompton I have to be honest this feels like deflection from my energi to avoid addressing the warranty issue from your manufacturers instructions. Is there any comments on this @JordeeBrompton

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@vitaelectrical @contactelectri3 @ChrisRuddock2 And maximum demand and diversity can open a whole other can of worms lol

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@ChrisRuddock2 @contactelectri3 I feel this could be a rabbit hole lol

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@ChrisRuddock2 😂

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@ChrisRuddock2 This one

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@Monty_Electrics @ChrisRuddock2 It is becoming more of a grey area but like you they are probably classed as a control item rather than a load but, what I am seeing from this and the LinkedIn post is that many are doing this differently

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@ChrisRuddock2 I agree you could go down this road as far as you want and ultimately doesn’t matter.

On LinkedIn a screen shot of GN3 has been shared on page 156 and gives a bit of a steer.

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@ChrisRuddock2 It’s definitely a muddy one lol.

You test at a switch so why not count it?

I get you would t test a junction box or count it but this makes or breaks your circuit?

Always thought it’s an area that should be clearer.

[Craig Buist @CB_electrics]

@StemShow 😂😂😂

I will patiently awaiting the response lol.
