Probation inspector appointment

[Ruffellio]

Tightness test,checking high and low readings and gas rate,working pressure and meter and operating pressure at appliance.also he may ask questions on ventilation I.e fires and cookers in kitchens.if you don't know just say hang on and get ur book out as even if it takes you all day and you get the question right that will be good enough.its just showing him that u can find the answer even if u don't know.

I got a chart with my receipt and my card through the post. To use this and log all my work details.
Also have had an email.
Just can't believe it sometimes. . Jheez had someone ask me for a gas certificate and low and behold. It was just immediate stop. The cooker only two out of four burners and no spark safety devices not working. The boiler elbow on top of housing not inserted fully. A magnitizer leaking water. Work has started even before it had begin
This is a task I'd avoid to attend at this probation status.. what a mouthful

Brahamo,
I had my inspection on Thursday. It was so daunting. I know how serious gas is, but God he was so down the line, and never had much banter, to put me at ease. The inspection went well for me and I am not 'on probation' no more. Lots of technical questions, with a good phase of show me tell me. Please see list below of what I was asked to do.
Installs looked at boiler and gas hob.
Let by- temp stab and tightness test (yeh but why questions)
Standing and working pressures at meter.
Gas rates/but ( he said I could use an app, but I declined just to show I could do it the paper way)
Pipe sizing
Lots of tech questions on MIs just to make sure I knew how to read them I think.
Commissioning, working pressure, FGA etc
26/9 questions
Fires - ventilation
Flue flow and leakage tests
Pipe sizing

He was here for 4 hours, and it was so intense. But a good result at the end mate. I made no mistakes and just told him what he wanted to hear. I also learnt a lot from him in the end.

Good luck with yours on the 16th
