Sample questions
01You are writing up a design where the charge point’s maximum demand is taken at a managed figure rather than full output. Which regulation allows that?
- ARegulation 722.312.2.1 on PEN conductors in EV circuits
- BRegulation 722.311.201 on load curtailment and demand
- CRegulation 722.533.101 on charge point final circuits
- DRegulation 722.411.4.1 on PME and outdoor charge points
Why: 722.311.201 lets load curtailment be taken into account when maximum demand is determined. 722.533.101 is tempting because it is also about the charge point circuit, but it requires each charging point to have its own final circuit and overcurrent device; it says nothing about demand. The PEN and PME regulations deal with earthing.
02A customer has no room for dynamic load management, so you propose a changeover switch that stops the electric shower and the charge point running together. Can that count as load curtailment in your demand figure?
- ANo, because only automatic curtailment may be counted
- BYes, but only where the supply to the house is three-phase
- CYes, as manual disconnection is a form 722.311.201 allows
- DNo, because only a system with a supply sensor counts
Why: 722.311.201 covers load reduction or disconnection, carried out automatically or manually, so a changeover that prevents both loads running together is a recognised arrangement. The tempting belief that it must be automatic or sensor-based is wrong: the regulation names manual curtailment and sets no particular technology. The number of phases is irrelevant.
03A small flat has very little spare supply capacity at any time of day or night. The customer wants a charge point anyway. Which approach is often the honest answer?
- AA full-rate charge point on the basis it runs overnight
- BA diversity allowance applied to the new EV circuit
- CDynamic management set to use the overnight headroom
- DA static current cap with the design built around it
Why: Dynamic management earns its keep by using spare capacity when it is there. Where there is very little spare capacity at any time, it has little to give, and a low static cap that the circuit and demand are designed around is the plain answer. Diversity and assumptions about overnight use are not controls and do not limit current.
Common questions
Is the Load management and energy systems mock exam free?
Yes — 100% free, no sign-up needed. Questions are pulled at random from a substantial bank, with a worked explanation on every question after you submit.
Can I retake the mock exam?
Yes. Every attempt picks a different random selection and reshuffles the options, so each retake gives you genuinely new questions. No limit on retakes.
Does this count towards the real qualification?
No — this is independent practice material. To gain the actual qualification you need to sit the official assessment through an approved provider.
