Magnetic Testing involves the magnetization of a component, followed by the application of ferromagnetic particles. The particles align along discontinuities in the surface, or shallow sub-surface discontinuities. This method is used to test welds, castings, and forgings for surface or subsurface defects; however it can only be used on ferromagnetic metals.

 

What are the responsibilities of a individual who is certified to Magnetic Level 1?

An individual certified to Magnetic Level 1 has to demonstrate competence to carry out NDT according to written instructions and under the supervision of Level 2 or Level 3 personnel. Within the scope of the competence defined on the certificate, Magnetic Level 1 personnel may be authorized by the employer to perform the following in accordance with NDT instructions:

• Set up Magnetic Testing equipment;
• Perform the Magnetic Inspection tests;
• Record and classify the results of the tests according to written criteria;
• Report the results

 

Level 1 certified personnel shall neither be responsible for the choice of test method or technique to be used, nor for the interpretation of test results.
