Test Gear & Safety testing

Re: Test Gear & Safety testing

I took the PAT course just to have the piece of paper, bit expensive to be taught what I already knew but neccessary.
There were about two dozen of us and the course out of which only two of us were electricians 😥 the rest varied from office girls (if I can say that 😳 ) to a handyman on a caraven site.
One poor girl was bricking it at the thought of having to do testing, her ability and electrical knowledge was zilch she had never even fitted a 13 amp plug top before 😯
Anyway at the end of the days course everyone was issued with the certificate. The question is “is it right?”

Same for me as far as the bit of paper goes.

On the course that I did there were about 10 people, 2 or 3 of those that failed happened to be ‘in house maintenance electricians’ for quite large companies 😯

Please Peeps: Help me out here, I am Andy’s (specialist 01269) Nephew / Apprentice / Gofer & asked Andy about this, he told me to look it up on the internet as it would help me learn how to find information but I couldn’t find the info so thought I would ask you guys.

Thanks: Mark 😕
