How to revise

Use more than GN3

Some inspection and testing exam questions use related guidance such as GS38 and knowledge of how to code and classify issues on the EICR. Getting familiar with these documents can edge your score up.

Use the links above to access the free downloads and get familiar with the extra guidance before the exam. In the exam centre you should expect to be allowed GN3 only, so treat GS38 and Best Practice Guide 4 as revision support rather than documents you can take in.

Practise by topic

Practise GN3 inspection and testing by topic

Revise safe isolation, continuity testing, insulation resistance, polarity, earth fault loop impedance, RCD testing, certificates, EICR classification codes and more.
