Entry Requirements

What are the entry requirements?

Who can take this qualification?

There are no formal entry requirements for this course. As a general rule candidates should have knowledge of electrical installation and electrical science. If you have no previous installation experience you may want to attend our Domestic Installation Workshop and 5 day building regs course before taking this course.

The course is primarily aimed at practicing electricians and domestic installers, however it is also very popular with allied professionals such as contracts managers, designers, electrical engineers, consultants, surveyors, and other related trades needing to update and enhance their understanding of the IEE Wiring Regulations. All candidates must be over 18 years old.

Why take this course?

Why should I take the 18th Edition?

Essentially you will want to make sure if you are working in electrical installation that you are designing and installing to the latest regulations. In fact every installation from January 2019 will need to be designed in line with the 18th Edition wiring regulations.

Anyone looking to register with a competent persons scheme will need to prove they are up to date even if they have already completed a Level 3 NVQ. Also anyone looking to register with the new ECS Check system will need the latest qualification.

Other reasons to train with us include:
  • A wide range of locations across the UK (More coming soon)
  • We have been delivering wiring regs courses for many years
  • Online access to course materials and future updates

Although it is mainly theory based you can not beat real training in a real classroom. By training with other people in your class you will benefit from being able to ask relevant questions as well as finding the answers to many questions from your fellow students that you may not even thought of.

All students on this course will gain access to our online learning portal. If any amendments to the 18th Edition are published we will update the the details in the learning portal giving you direct access to the most up to date information. There is no need to re-take or update your qualification for new amendments.

Course Content

What's covered?

This course has recently been updated to include Amendment 2 released in April 2022. The course is structured as follows:

  • Roughly half a day eLearning covering how to navigate your way around the book
  • 2 Days teaching
  • 2 Hour final exam booked to take place on the third day

Many people assume that the new course will contain lots of extra content, however in reality it will still remain very similar to the old 17th Edition courses with some changes. The key thing about wiring regulations courses is that they are not designed to teach you every regulation in the book but are more focussed on how to reference the latest regulations as you would on the job.

Key topics currently covered on the course will still be included:

  • Scope, object and fundamental principles
  • Definitions
  • Assessment of general characteristics
  • Protection for safety
  • Selection and erection of equipment
  • Inspection and testing
  • Special installations or locations
  • Appendices

What are the key changes in the 18th Edition?

Key changes to the 18th Edition are as follows:
  • Protection against overvoltages – Clause 443 is likely to be overhauled.
  • Protection against fire – Chapter 42 will be updated with extra information on arc fault detection
  • Electrical Embedded heating – Section 753 will be extended to include embedded electrical heating systems for surface heating, and will include de-icing and frost prevention systems.
  • Energy efficiency – There will be a brand new section covering energy efficiency

As stated above the course is not designed to cover every regulation in the book. It will teach you how to best reference your book in relation to situations you will face in your working life.

The design of new electrical installations must comply to the 18th Edition from the 1st January 2019 and from this date scheme providers will be assessing all members to 18th Edition standards, there is likely to be a 6 month grace period for members to gain the qualification but ultimately you will want to get qualified by 1st July 2019.

Course Assessments

You will take a 2 hour online multiple choice exam, which will take place on the third day.

You will be able to take your 18th Edition Regulations book (BS 7671) into the exam with you and refer to it if need be. The timing of the exam means that you will have on average 2 minutes per question so a good overall knowledge of the 18th Edition regs plus a thorough understanding of the book is a must.

Please note that you must bring photographic ID such as passport or driving license with you in order to sit the assessment on this course.

Frequently Asked Questions

GET IN TOUCH
When will I need to take this course?

This will depend on your situation. The main thing is that all installations designed from January 2019 onwards must comply with the new regs. As such if you are happy with your understanding of the new Blue book then there is no need to take a course. However if you belong to scheme such as the NICEIC, ELECSA, STROMA, Napit or others then they will tell you when you need to complete the qualification by. If you are registered with the JIB ECS check system then you will also need to achieve the latest qualification by a date which they will confirm to you.

The new 18th edition course will be very similar to the existing 17th edition course. As such we expect those who have completed the 17th edition course with the 3rd amendment to complete this course in a much shorter time with our 2 day 18th edition update course. Despite this being a new regs book many of the existing regulations and the format of the book will remain the same.

Virtually everyone working in electrical installation needs to be up to date with the latest wiring regulation. It is essentially the industry bible. Installers and employers require it as do governing bodies.

There are no formal entry requirements, however we recommended that you understand the basic of electrical installation before undertaking this course.

It is not mandatory, however students looking to pass first time may wish to set aside a couple of hours each evening to review course notes and revise.
