Welcome

Hello and welcome to Electrical Qualifications. This site has been set up to help you demistify the somewhat confusing route to practising as an electrician. It is a useful resource for young people looking for entry into the electrical industry and adults looking for electrical training to retrain or gain qualifications in order to further a career in the electrical industry. The site is not just for potential electricians and the City and Guilds 2330 crowd, information is also available if you are a current practising electrician or an allied trade such as a plumber, gas fitter, contractor or kitchen fitter through the domestic installers qualifications and competent person scheme.

17th Edition, 2330 and 2392 Exam Practice Series software, free and instant downloads and demo versions

Monday 13th of August 2007

The following is a brief list of the new 17th Edition courses etc.

Not all the detail is available yet nor are all the titles decided.

2382 – 10 Full 17th Edition course. ( M.C )

2382 – 20 Part 17th Edition course ( M.C )

2392- 10 Fundamentals of testing ( provisional title ) ( M .C )

2393 - 10 Part P Electrical Safety

2393 – 20 Qualified Supervisors to Part P

2393– 30 Building Regs Electrical safety Commercial and industrial installers.

It looks like there is going to be quite a flood of different qualifications to hit the industry. Some seem to be immediate replacements for the old with the 17th Edition pending. I suspect that it is because of the confusion over what qualifications are needed for different aspects of the job.
