    2391 52

    One thing is, don't bother with all these online 2391 mock exams you see online as they're way off completely & don't resemble the actual 2391 exams one bit.

    IMHO I think the OP is on a wind up & wouldnt at all be surprised he is a qualified electrician making a point about these short courses. May be wrong Just my opinion.
