Level 3 Certificate in the Building Regulations For Electrical Installations in Dwellings City & Guilds 2393-10

The Government approved Document P (electrical safety) came into effect on 1 Jan 2005.  For the first time work carried out by domestic electrical installers became subject to the requirements and procedures associated with Building Control.  Domestic electrical installers need to appreciate the requirements that apply to building work they carry out in connection with their electrical work, and they need to understand the way that Building Control works and the procedures that need to be followed.

The primary aim of this course is to enable practising electricians, operating in the domestic environment, to gain an understanding of how electrical installations in dwellings must comply with all relevant Building Regulations.

This course is suitable for those working in the building trades and others who require a working knowledge of how electrical installations in dwellings can affect the building construction.

The course comprises:

• The general requirements of the Building Regulations in relation to electrical installations in dwellings

• Methods of compliance with the six parts of the Building Regulations most relevant to electrical installations in dwellings

Please note that this qualification is only suitable for those practising their trade in England and Wales due to there being different regulations in Scotland and Northern Ireland.

The examination is open book and one or both of the publications below can be taken into the examination and used for reference
• Electrical Installers’ guide to the Building Regulations for Dwellings and Associated Areas in England and Wales published by NICEIC
• IEE Guide to Part P of the Building Regulations published by IEE
