even when i did my nvq welding course part of the exam was being able to setup the plant and explain process to the examiner. we then had to do a 50 question verbal test followed by various test pieces done both horizontally and vertically. you got one go at each test piece and they were all visually inspected and destruction tested on start and stop areas.
i would find it hard to believe that a coded welder wouldnt be able to setup the plant that he/she is coded for.
as sam has said its usually people that tell porkies that ruin it for the people who have actually bothered to do it properly
