Hi Sorry 

for the late reply.

yeah I’m in SA.

theres a company called skills SA who will advise you on what direct transferable qualifications you have and what will need to be transferred I found these pretty useful.

Seek is a good one for jobs.

maybe contact red appointments and Randstad they are the bigger agencies.

Good luck with everything

Hi, does anyone know if IPAF cards are accepted in Australia. IPAF claim it is international but some older posts on other sites suggest it isn’t. Looking at South Australia if it makes a difference.

cheers 

 

Hi

No IPAF not acceptable in SA either you need a new ticket for everything here.

It is possible to do the artc from the uk then do a distance learning course at peer and on arrival do a 3 day course to gain your licence. Hope this helps if you need any more info let me know

Hi Duggy,

 

Congrats on ur successful pass, could you explain the whole heater task please, i have the study guide, but some of it repeats itself, and it doesn't make it clear? Is a heater mounted to the wall feed from a MCB to a Spur to a JB, then Flexed to the heater? did u perfrom an insulation resistance test on the heater?? Duggy any info would be great, sorted for the rest of the assessment but lacking in this area.

 

Thanks a Million

Jonathan

Hi Jonnathon.

Don't worry about it mate I haven't done a lot of testing myself just keep checking your instruments to known source after everything you do go way over top with checking.

Don't forget mate they want you to pass they are not there to catch you out.

Talk him through every step of your testing. The tubular heater is fed from a spur directly fed from mcb. Big tip make sure you test the heater is not live before you do anything. Any more questions feel free to ask.

Where abouts in oz you heading mate.

Hi jonnathon

 

A panel heater usually has ceramic insulation aroung the element so i would suggest >1meg.

Hi jonnathon.

I did my Vetassess about 6 months ago in London and the heater was a tubular wall mounted hope this helps.

Thanks Derrin. You input has been great. My sister lives in Perth so i will be able to use her address. Didnt realise you needed to purchase the reading material for the course though. Just more overtime to squeeze in to bump up the oz float.

Couple of questions

Who's your agent ? Were they local as i live just outside Glasgow.

Thanks again

Colin

Hi Derren.

Noticed you are doing the ARTC do you have to be in Australia to do the ARTC. Or is it possible to do in the uk? I have gone down Vetassess route and got a tra certificate but believe it's not worth the paper it's written on over there. So looking at doing the ARTC and then distance learning at peer south Australia for the as/NZS 3000.2007 wiring regs course. Which state are you in ?
