  2. cant believe what im reading here you absolutely cant touch any conductors weather covered or not note i said covered not insulated if the conductors are in contact with trees its more than likely the power will have to be isolated terry
  3. hi ed depending on whos doing your tech evaluation really depends on how in depth your chain knowledge will need to be some verifyers go deeper than others it will also depend on weather its an evaluation to become a registered instructor or an assessor all you can do is your best to know as much as you can terry

  7. hi the splits are most likely caused by tangental forces this happens when the limbs become too long to be able to support themselves and often had ribs of repair structure visible, more common in oak but it is possibly the answer not always easy to tell from photos terry
  8. hi gnarley oak try a friend of mine at arb tree care stoke on trent if thats not too far terry
  9. hi rich i think you can combine courses but not reduce the no of days, reason for this is the training should far exeed the requirements of the assessment so therefore 2 days for cs 40 is normally about right if a person has read and fully understands the assessment criteria then they may pass the assessment but will probably miss out on vital training over and above basic assessment requirement as for cs41 this is probably the biggest gap between assessment criteria and essential knowledge needed to rigg safely and efficiently therefore 4 days is normally about right but again it is always possible to pass the unit with less time on course if the ticket is the priority terry
  10. hey mike im running a 41 course in midlands soon terry 07791605132
  11. your normally gonna pay a day rate for trianing cs40 2days for experienced climbers and 4 days cs41 it is possible to cut downt the number of days when courses are combined but in this case i wouldnt reccomend it
  12. try richard at kingswood ive been inspecting kit for 10 years plus and have seen all sorts of standards when it come to course delivery and inspections you want industry experienced instruction witch believe it or not you dont always get.
