The 30 question update (thread title) so that can be your get out clause
I wasn't impressed with the course at all though, lecturer was pathetic.
He basically talked through a powerpoint type presentation which took the morning up - I can read so didn't get anything from him there.
He expanded on a few points, mostly giving incorrect information which I took pleasure in pointing out.
One example being that all circuits in a bathroom should be RCD protected and have a disconnection time of 0.4s, "what about a shower with a 40A protective device", I asked?
Another was a disagreement over current carrying capacity tables. He said T&E was table 4D2A, I corrected him by telling him it's actually table 4D5. He looked at both and said they looked the same so he'll continue to use 4D2A!
Methods of protection against electric shock, Basic Protection - he said placing out of reach couldn't be utilised in a bathroom. I said that's pretty obvious to which he disagreed! If anybody would consider that then they have no place of the course, surely?
Afternoon was taken up by him telling us what to highlight and where to put little post-it notes. Most were plain obvious and useless.
We actually did something useful then (finally) by completing an example paper then it was off to the test room.
£250+VAT though we received a copy of BS7671:2008 and the red Amicus book - good electrical practices (or similar) which is a good book and available for around £7.
