ARTC trade test
 

I have got my ARTC trade practical and theory test coming up. Does anyone know what is actually on it? It would be a great help to study up on those theory parts I have forgotten.
cheers

Mine took a lot of messing about. First they said I didn't have enough evidence. The trade test took time as the place shut down over xmas and Jan. So without the the hold ups it took about 3 months.
The test was very easy and not to complicated and they told me I passed the same day. Pretty much a farce as everyone copied of eaqch other (in melbourne this is).

Big John,

I really didnt give enough evidence at all. I rushed into getting it sent off. The impression I got after is that they wanted as much evidence on every aspect of your career.

The trade test involved 3 hr theory and 3 hour prac.

Theory: Alot on motors and starters
Ohms law
resistors in series and parallel
transformers

Prac:
wire two sockets and a two way light in conduit and connect to Consumer Unit
reverse a 3 phase motor

Really not that hard just a bit on motors that they seem pretty keen on
