    you must have a lot to get tested? You can make a tidy sum electrical testing. I think i'm in the wrong trade.

    I have a tester, but I can only certify my own work. I haven't got the experience to go for the testing and inspection qualification yet.

    The guy we met on our last job seemed like a decent chap. He is based north west of Brum, trading as Badger Electrical.

    "Is that your silver Volvo outside ?"

    I had someone at work ask that when we first had our silver Leggie - needless to say I nearly mowed him down in the car park the next day

    Do the 16 week course they will teach you everything you need to know? And you get the piece of paper at the end.
