he City and Guilds 2394 qualification has been designed as one of the replacement qualifications for City and Guilds 2391-10. The other qualification in the family is City and Guilds 2395.

City and Guilds 2394 is not a "direct" replacement for City and Guilds 2391-10 but shares many of the characteristics of City and Guilds 2391. As part of the updating process, the series of practical assessment have been thoroughly revised and updated.

We have successfully delivered this important qualification, and already City and Guilds 2394 is seen as a robust test of the individuals testing skill and electrical knowledge. To support this important qualification, we have a structured approach, so that you are assured that when you train with us, you will be thoroughly and totally trained.

Please note that the award is "split" into 3 distinct units which all candidates MUST successfully complete in order to achieve the qualification:

Unit 301: on line e-evolve examination Unit 302: Written examination Unit 303: Practical Assessment

About this course

City and Guilds 2394 is essentially aimed at practicing electricians who have not yet carried out any extensive inspection and testing since obtaining the 17th edition or perhaps since qualifying; or who require some update of their training before going on to other City & Guilds qualifications.

The qualification is also suitable for those with limited experience of initial verification and the inspection of electrical installations, and who have knowldge of electrical systems.

Although the course is principally designed for those who are already involved in the electrical industry, we suggest that those who are considering entering the industry, particularly from other engineering disciplines or who have been working in allied trades may find the course beneficial.
