I think you are correct there Mark but in IMO I still think you should be made to attend the course and pass it as it does give a sound base for the test involvement.
Who should carry out the Inspection and Testing?
The Electricity at Work regulations states that:
“No person shall be engaged in any work activity where technical knowledge or experience is necessary to prevent danger, or where appropriate, injury, unless he possesses such knowledge or experience, or is under such degree of supervision as may be appropriate having regard to the nature of the work”
The IEE Code of Practice states, those carrying out the inspection and testing must be competent to undertake the inspection and, where appropriate, testing of electrical equipment and appliances having due regard of their own safety and that of others. What should be considered is that the ‘danger’ to be prevented, includes not just the dangers which may arise during the testing procedure to the tester and others, but also the dangers which may arise at a later date as a result of using equipment which has not been effectively tested.
The tester must have an understanding of the modes of electrical, mechanical or thermal damage to electrical equipment and appliances and their flexes which may be encountered in any environment.
Training must include the identification of equipment and appliance types to determine the test procedures and frequency of inspection and testing. Persons testing must be familiar with the test instruments used and in particular their limitations and restrictions so as to achieve repeatable results without damaging the equipment or the appliance

GregRe: SMEG DWF 1 Capacitor exploded
Hi
Firstly capacitors like any other component can breakdown.
Secondly, you need to confirm if it is the same capacitor at fault, or could it perhaps be the mains suppressor unit which can eminate same noises when that fails.Power off before attempting any repair :plug:
If you are in any doubt of your ability please use the link below to find an engineer close to you.Regards

Re: Advertising
Was kicking an idea about.
We have more chance of selling an ISE on a private call than a call for a work provider.
So why not get the rear of your customer portion of your invoice books printed with the ISE advert with “your” details as the supplier?Regards

Re: ise quick wash
Hi
“Quick Wash” is merely a function not a wash cycle.
If you look here http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/downloads/ise/ci555whuserguide.pdf
on page 12, you will see that not all wash cycles permit “Quick Wash” selection, but the ones that do can be seen and their estimated duration is shown in its respective column.Regards

Re: Pat testing
Hi TC
You would need to be qualified to do so. A technical college evening course in PAT testing; is the most viable for us, so as not to be off the road losing money.
Have a look here http://www.pat-training.co.uk/pat_testing_courses.htm
