Re: Prep-Test Help
Hi Guys,
Sort of on the same subject but for the UK.
1st Jan see's new regs come into play about electrical installation and people having the correct qualifications. Does anybody know what it's including. I am fairly sure you don't need to be qualified to 17th Reg standards to wire in a condensing unit or compressor buy what does it cover.
For all of those of you in management positions, what qualifications do you look for when advertising for engineers. Is there an industry standard basic qualification for electrics or is it covered by various C&G courses
Regards
Fatboy

Hi Paul.
Nice to see you posting again............
Im glad youre thinking of adding new strings to your bows.
You cannot go wrong if you do, and these days its the certificate that counts.
Your licence counts and paves the way to earn more.........
Here in the UK, the gas guys got themselves licensed, excluded all others and guaranteed themselves top dollar rates.
The electricians are doing the same.
The fridge guys............any ton , **** or harry can fiddle with his gear............
We are nowhere near to being exclusive.
I advise, get licensed in other areas..........this way you cover yourself

The Regulations have approved documents that explain them:

You can get Part P on Electrical Work:

Have a look at the AD, It explains things quite clearly and it does not apply to commercial work.
Nothing changes in relation to the BS 7671 which apply standards to both.
It simply means that any electrical work in dwellings have a regulatory route for formal testing. If you are a commercial concern, you are unlikely to be doing anything you were not doing before. In another area it extends the responsibility of DIYers to test new work and it may be included in surveyor?s reports at the time of sale.
Before the days of self certification when the electrical industry was nationalized and run by regional boards, all new installations had to be tested before connection. A man in a brown coat came around with his megger and loop impedance tester.
Hope this helps.
