The Licensing Forum
Gerry Beaumont replied to hausdok's topic in Home Inspection Licensing and Pending/Legislation
Hi to all I spent a huge ammount of time last fall studying the issue of the effects of licensing in all the states who both regulate inspectors, and whose State boards publish the results of discipinary actions, I have to tell you that I could find no corrolation what so ever between State licensing and consummer protection, the reported incidence of inspector failure is so small that it is statistically invalid. I personally keep flip flopping over the licensing issue, I believe valid licensing to be a good thing, if it offers protection to both the client, and as you say the inspecto -
Thinking about it...Pocket PC/PDA
Gerry Beaumont replied to fqp25's topic in Computers & Reporting Systems Forum
Hi to all, Like many others I love the idea of a PDA but hate the screen size and also the fact that the opperating system does not support many programs. I have been looking at the OQO model 2 pocket pc which has a full windows XP or vista OS www.oqo.com Regards Gerry -
Bryan, I would suggest that you look at the Dryflekt website, this is the flashing that I spec for repairs, the site has good drawings and CAD files. www.dryflekt.com Regards Gerry

WDO Inspection courses in Fl.
Gerry Beaumont replied to Fastsporty's topic in Pest Control (WDI, WDO and Rodents)
Hi to all, I have to agree with Dom, one of my own membes down here was opperating like that, not only is it illegal for a HI to contract for that work in this state, but also in doing so they would be buying a big chunk of any potential liabilities in this area. Ther have been several actions taken against HI's doing exactly this. Regards Gerry -

Desperately Seeking Susan's Lens
Gerry Beaumont replied to hausdok's topic in Help Wanted - Businesses For Sale
Hi Jim, thanks for the update, shame prices are getting out of hand. I have been seeing the same thing on Ebay, prices are getting very silly with some stuff making far higher prices than I would expect. Better luck next-time, but what will you do for laughs after you have bought one? The thrill is in the chase! Regards Gerry -

The 15- and 30-amp designations indeed refer to the current levels at which the meters are tested and adjusted. (I've been doing some research.) However, it's misleading to say that they have nothing to with the meter's maximum amperage. The issue for a meter isn't the maximum amperage; it's the continuous load range. In modern meters, this is labeled as a class designation and is printed on the meter as the letters "CL" followed by a number. For instance a CL-200 meter is a class 200 meter rated for a continuous load of 200 amps. According to ANSI C12.10, a 15-amp meter is equivalent

The old 15 amp meters were rated for use with 100 amp services. You'll also see 30-amp meters in that part of town. These were rated for use with 200 amp services. I have no idea why they carry the 15 and 30 amp designations. - Jim Katen, Oregon Hi to all, The 15 (and later 30) amp figure seen on many older meters is the testing and calibration amperage, and nothing to do with the meters maximum amperage. Regards Gerry

Hi to all, Prestons list that unit as being a 1984, and yes as other have stated it is a 3 ton unit. Regards Gerry
