Prepping For My Napit Assessment

[@markpunt9638]

All the best with the assessment - you seem to have prepared very well. Let us know how it goes

[@TKFReflex]

Good luck on your napit inspection I'm sure it will be sweet. The interlink core on smokes generally I use some brown sleeving (Black core), blue sleeving for grey (neutral).

[@mikethemask1525]

No harm in sleeving the black core brown if you like but you don't need to its a 12volt link cable🤷‍♂️

All best On the assessment you smash it ⚡️👊

If this is a rented property then you have used the wrong type of Aico alarm. You need to use the 3000 series alarms that have a tamper proof battery. You also need to ensure there is a smoke alarm in the lounge. You can link these all via wireless modules/bases if easier I am not sure if Napit will pick up on this but it’s a possibility. I recommend sitting the Aico course as I learnt an absolute ton about installing alarms and realised I had been doing it wrong. You also get the title of Aico expert installer when you finish the course which looks good to clients 👍🏻

It’s not a rented property it’s a friends house which he’s just bought

[@uplightuk8924]

@@jimbotheelectrician3819Ok mate fair enough I thought you mentioned rented property at the start apologies

[@thereal1006]

It's easier to wire up the smokes 1st, then put them up it looks much neater to instead of trying to get all cables in

[@entergenericedgynamehere8751]

Jimbo, I'm just curious how you got on, bud? Got my first Napit assessment next week

[@emmafoster7046]

Napit = barber caste 😋🇮🇳 in India

[@montystelevision3238]

Do you have the Building Control notice with the Local Authority available for the assessor?

[@JIBS.]

These assessments are complete bollox. Why they do them every year I do not know. My Mrs is a Nurse and only assessed every 3 year. It's all about ticking box's to say we assess our Sparks every year to make sure they're competent. If you were not competent they would've failed you on the first one.

[@Dog-whisperer7494]

It’s so they can fleece you for more money . After all they are a business and need to keep making a profit.

[@electricalstuff259]

Yep - why does it have to be every 12 months? It's not like you suddenly become incompetent! I would only take on site work and then for domestic just do rewires where you can easily bake the cost of the notification into the job.
