Description

Assuming no prior knowledge of plumbing skills, Steve Muscroft - the author of the 6129 Certificate in Basic Plumbing from City & Guilds - takes the reader step by step through the requirements of the 6129 qualification at Level 2. This highly practical, student-focussed text, also provides all the necessary underpinning knowledge required for the 6089 NVQ at Level 2, making it essential reading for apprentices, as well as serving as a useful reference for practicing plumbers. The reader will be guided through each of the key areas and processes in the field of Plumbing, with additional emphasis on Health & Safety. The book fully covers the syllabus requirements for the Level 2 Technical Certificate and NVQ, and readers will find topics essential to actual plumbing practice, not included as part of the Level 2 specifications, are also introduced, such as gas fired boilers, service and maintenance aspects, and reference to the Water Regulations (1999). All material is fully in line with latest British Standards (BS 6700 and BS800). The book is designed to maximise accessibility of the text for the reader. Activities feature per topic area covered, to allow application of theory into practical contexts, along with 'Test Yourself' questions at the end of each chapter for use during college / centre training. These can also be compiled into the student's portfolio as evidence of learning. Each chapter concludes with a set of multiple choice questions, following the style of the City & Guilds knowledge assessment, enabling the student to revise the key concepts introduced in that chapter. These MCQs will also prove essential preparation for the 6129 Technical Certificate exam. Model answers and answers to Activities are included for reference. * Content matched specifically to the latest plumbing qualifications from City & Guilds - the 6129 Certificate in Basic Plumbing and 6089 NVQ at Level 2. * Written by the author of the City & Guilds 6129 scheme * Brand new textbook resource with essential pedagogical features: activities, 'test yourself' questions; MCQs; and model answers
