    Schedule of test results for 2 new circuits. Do I need to list all untouched circuits....

    Thanks, One more Q : in the over current device box for type (2nd column) do you just put B or the BSEN number... on my 2391 course the tutor said to put the BSEN number eg 60898 then B32 in rating etc but the OSG shows the example of B for type with just the value in the rating? Thanks.

    Schedule of test results for 2 new circuits. Do I need to list all untouched circuits....
