And Cirrus, whilst i respect your views i dont neccesarily agree with them

we have taught many, many students who have gone on to gainful employment in the electrical industry

obviuosly no-one comes in 'green', do four weeks of training and start up as 'ABC Electrics' the following week - we recommend our 'new' students get 6-12 months of real world experience working with electrical contractors before they consider working by themselves

we have stringent training criteria, and unless you can successfully test PFC's, explain how you would obtain the R1+R2 value given the r1 value for a line conductor on a ring main etc etc then you wont pass
