Sample questions

  1. 01Which test verifies that a Type B RCD will operate on a smooth DC residual current?
    • AEarth fault loop impedance test
    • BInsulation resistance test
    • CRamp test applied with a superimposed DC component
    • DIntegral push-button test only

    Why: A Type B RCD must be ramp-tested with a superimposed DC residual current to confirm it trips at its rated smooth DC threshold; the push-button only proves the mechanical trip.

  2. 02Which capability distinguishes a dedicated EV charge point tester from a standard multifunction tester (MFT)?
    • AIt can perform an external earth fault loop impedance test
    • BIt can simulate vehicle states and verify Control Pilot/PP signalling
    • CIt can measure insulation resistance between live conductors and earth
    • DIt can carry out continuity testing of protective conductors

    Why: An EV adaptor or charge point tester can simulate the vehicle CP/PP states and verify the EVSE responds correctly, in addition to the usual electrical tests an MFT performs.

  3. 03What inspection interval is commonly recommended for a publicly accessible commercial EV charging installation?
    • AEvery 6 months
    • BAnnually
    • CEvery 5 years
    • DMonthly

    Why: Public commercial charging installations are typically subject to a maximum periodic inspection interval of around one year due to heavy public use and outdoor exposure.

Common questions

Is the Testing 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.
