    Register as an single phase tester

    Register as an single phase tester
    Hi guys, A few months ago I tried to register as an single phase tester. I sent the following document:
    1. 5 years letter from company
    2. Unit standards for single phase
    3. Red seal trade test.

    Then I got a letter in the mail stating I need this: prove competence in constructing a*single phase*electrical installation as well as knowledge of basic electrical principles*

    But I submitted a red seal trade test isn't that proof?

    any feedback/advice will be appreciated

    Hi Arnold

    How many single phase electrical installations have you constructed thus far ?

    I don't know exactly what the requirements are, but my suggestion is that once you've done 3 or more then send them proof
    with photo's, addresses etc. It seems from their letter that that's what they require.

    Peace out .. Derek
