links & info

For information on lifespans I suggest first reading this very well written article by Matthew Cooper taken from issue 183 of the arb magazine. December 2018
I have links to some bits of legislation that you may find useful, some of the bits are specifically looking at kit for safety issues for cross referencing purposes
I have some information on lifespans and serial numbers etc that you can download, I'm fairly sure the info is correct, however always use the info as a guide and not verbatim. Its taken since 2020 to get to where it is and all I ask is the price of a pint.... or 2
Put your name and email address on the buy me a pint page and Ill send you a personalised, up to date copy.
Ill send you an email when it gets updated.
I’m currently working on a new document which looks at the individual manufacturers and brands showing where the relevant information on date and serial numbers are. Some are sneakily hidden away and some are in plain site but look very confusing. Ive been collating information for quite a few years and the process of getting it all down is going to take a few months and will probably have a couple of updates depending on when I get all of the information in from the manufacturers. Probably this will be the single biggest aid for newly qualified LOLER thorough examiners when it comes to finding the relevant information to record.
