I have a question as I never done that. Will anyone be able to tell me step by step how to do resistance reading for NSI ? I know each zone need to be measured but can anyone tell me how should I do it ? Please ?

I think you really need to try and find a basic electronics course at you local college, or a night class. Using a multimeter is the most basic elements of this industry and if you dont know how to use one, and clearly you do not, you should not be doing any work at all in this industry. Not understanding how to take basic measurements in this industry is like wondering around a crowded tube station blindfolded, your gonna bump into something sooner or later, lets hope its not a tube train.

 

Honestly I wouldnt employ a trainee that doesnt have the basics, you would not pass our interview exam. 

 

I am giving advice here not taking the P, get on a basic electronic course once you understand the fundamentals you will have a much better understanding of whats going on.

 

But asking us to teach you the basics is asking for trouble, because someone will rip the pss  

Trust me, Usbourne Electronics

Up to you if you take me up on it, its a serious recommendation.

So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands

 

20 years ago might have had a chance, now the distinction between and alarm and a 'home automation' system would keep the courts busy for years...

 

The ultimate test of 'is it an alarm you're installing?' would be an external siren I suppose, but hardly anyone DIY / low end fits them. I don't even fit them if it's monitored!

Not a dig, but  "Do you own a Multimeter" 

 

Resistance readings for circuits is the easy part, and something than should be do regardless of the NSI / SSAIB
