City & Guilds 2382-20 17th Edition (Update Course)

The IEE Wiring Regulations (BS 7671) are the definitive standards for the electrical industry in respect of safe use and operation of electrical equipment and systems. They set requirements and operating criteria for the UK and correspond to EC standards and are recognised by the British Standards Institute as a British Standard (BS 7671).

The 17th Edition of the IEE wiring regulations (BS 7671) publication date is January 2008. This qualification aims to update candidates on the changes since the 16th edition. It will focus on the main additions and alterations from the 16th edition that have been incorporated from the 16th edition in the 2008 17th edition.

This qualification is primarily aimed at practising electricians with a working knowledge of the 16th edition of the BS 7671 and who have already achieved a qualification addressing BS 7671 such as the City & Guilds Certificate in the Requirements for Electrical Installations (BS 7671 June 2001) 2381 or the 2330-07, 2330-08 or the 2360 Part 2 post 1st January 2004. It is intended to ensure that they are conversant with the format, content and application of the current edition of the Requirements for Electrical Installations BS 7671: 2008 (17th edition).

Anyone without existing knowledge, as detailed above, of the requirements of BS 7671 must undertake the qualification addressing the Wiring Regulations in full – the City & Guilds Level 3 Certificate in the Requirements for Electrical Installations (BS 7671 2008) (2382-10 Full Course).
