After carrying out electrical installation work it is necessary to ensure the new work meets the requirements of BS7671. An inspection and test of this work must be carried out to confirm it is safe to be put into service.
The Electricity at Work Regulations requires electrical installations to be maintained so as not to give rise to danger. One common method of meeting this requirement is to carry out a periodic inspection and test of an electrical installation and report on its condition.
The course covers the latest requirements of BS7671, IET Wiring Regulations and is relevant to single and three phase installations, domestic, commercial and industrial installations.
Please note that this course requires a good understanding of electrical principles and a knowledge of electrical installations.
Candidates need to be aware that there are several assessments to be completed within this course.
Assessments methods include: On Line Multiple Choice open book examination, a written assignment both of which take place during the course and a practical assessment which can be arranged on a flexible basis with the centre shortly after the course.
