[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 519776, member: 250"] Also.. remember the bods doing an assessment will always be looking with a fine tooth comb for some observations or comments about your example work/documentation.. as otherwise they wont have much evidence for their bosses that they are doing their job right!! If they just passed everyone, with no comments/observations they would look as though they haven't really checked anything! e.g. Providing the measured max Zs is correct in relation to the protective device.. writing an incorrect max permissible Zs on an electrical certificate, is not actually much of a safety issue.. OR.. ticking the wrong box for the earthing arrangement... (as 99% of customers can't understand the majority of the numbers written on the certificate anyway).. But an assessor would love this type of mistake as they can report an error on their assessment about your work, that they have highlighted to you! There are a whole bunch of academic errors that have no safety issues.. yet assessors seem to be trained to spot!! So don't panic.. when they appear to be questioning some aspect of the job during an assessment.. Guinness [/QUOTE]
