    1. Approved Codes of Practice (ACoP’s):


      Have no legal status
      Are only recommendations
    # Have a quasi legal status
      Are mandatory

    2. When we proof test an item on a test machine we are actually applying:


      A mass equal to the weight
      A friction equal to the mass
    # A force equal to the mass
      A weight equal to the friction

    3. LEEA Technical Requirements call for test machines to have:


      A minimum accuracy of ±1.5%
    # A minimum accuracy of ±2%
      A maximum accuracy of ±1.5%
      A maximum accuracy of ±2%

    4. When test weights are used, LEEA Technical Requirements call for the applied load to have:
      A minimum accuracy of ±1.5%
    # A minimum accuracy of ±2%
      A maximum accuracy of ±1.5%
      A maximum accuracy of ±2%

    5. The LEEA Code of Practice for the Safe Use of Lifting Equipment is:
      An Approved Code of Practice
    # A Recommended Code of Practice
      A Harmonised Standard
      A training Manual

    6. Working to Harmonised European Standards:


    # Is one way of ensuring products comply with European Directives
      Is mandatory
      Ensures the interchangeability of components whatever their source
      Prevents the use of imported materials

    7. The SI metric system of measurements used in the UK is:
      Different to that used in the rest of Europe
      Is based on a random series of numbers

    # Was adopted internationally in 1960


      Is also known as the imperial system

    8. The SI unit of force is known as the:


      Watt
      Metre
      Litre
    # Newton

    9. The conversion used for inches to millimetres is:


      1 inch = 2.54mm
      1 foot = 25.4mm
    # 1 inch = 25.4mm
      1 foot = 254mm

    10. 10ft is approximately:


      1 metre
      2 metres
      2.5 metres
    # 3 metres

    11. 1m is approximately:
      3.9”
    # 39”
      3.9’
      39’

    12. For conversion purposes 1 hundredweight equals:


      5kg
      15kg
    # 50kg
      500kg

    13. The American ton equals:


      2000kg
      2240kg
      2240lbs
    # 2000lbs

    14. The Imperial ton equals:


      2000kg
      2240kg
    # 2240lbs
      2000lbs

    15. The Metric tonne equals:
    # 2204lbs
      2240lbs

      2000kg
      2240kg

    16. For all practical purposes we can say that 10kN equals:
    # 1000kg
      1000lb
      10000kg
      10000lb

    17. The SI unit of stress is the Newton per square metre (N/m²), therefore:
      1MN/m² = 10N/mm²
      1N/m² = 1ton/inch²
    # 1MN/m² = 1N/mm²
      1N/m² = 10ton/inch²

    18. BSI recommend that SWL(WLL) of less than 1000kg should be marked:
      As decimals of a tonne to three decimal places
    # In kilograms to the nearest whole kilogram
      In increments of 10kg to that nearest the actual amount
      Are too small for practical purposes and should not be used

    19. When marking SWL(WLL) greater than 1000kg, BSI recommend:


    # Marking in tonnes to only one decimal place, except for 1.25t
      Marking whole tonnes and any remainder as kilograms
      Marking only in kilograms
      Marking in tonnes with three decimal places

    20. When re-marking an imperial rated shackle of 2ton 9cwt SWL with SI units the correct marking would be:
      2t 900kg
      2.9t
      2400kg
    # 2.4t
