Life was simple back in the day, raising a family and living in a shack. Then they invented electricity and people found life more exciting with a whole new way to die.
Electricity was and is dangerous and in May 1882 the first rules and regulations were made protecting people from shock, fire...
It's probably been asked on here numerous times before, but can anyone recommend any 18th edition on-line courses? I'll probably end up doing the NIC one but if anyone knows better???
Cheers
Good evening all,
Booked in for the 18th edition exam on Thursday morning after completing the online training package with XS training.
Been getting 90% plus on the majority of the practice tests and felt pretty confident.......until yesterday when the doubts started to set in. I suppose a...
I have recently finished my level 3 2365 electrical installation course. I also have my 17th edition. I am relocating to Banbury in January so I am looking for work in the oxford area. I worked for a small domestic firm between 2006 to 2010. I then had the opportunity to try and play golf...

So I had this question in mock exam, got mine tomorrow, the real one.
The external influence code ACM requires IP rated equipment to
IPX1
IPX4
IP0
IPX2
Answer IPX4 apparently. But I could not find the corresponding external influence and presume it is a typo? I don't want to encounter this...

Hi, new member to the forum.
Started on the 16th edition but haven't done any regs edition tests since the start of the 17th. As I changed to do LV & HV cable jointing. But still like to keep up with the regs. Looking at my local college they still offer the BS 7671 courses but not city and...

I received my 18th edition books a few days ago and found only a few training providers that allow you to sit the exam only.
I contacted Oakley Services UK knowing that they had an 18th exam this evening but if they had a cancellation, could I sit the exam, surprisingly they said that they had...
Whats the requirement for getting clued up on the new regs? Do you HAVE to go on an official training course by an appropriately qualified trainer, or can one just read up on it oneself?
I've done the latter, plus reading up on articles in the technical press.
Personally I begrudge paying the...
There is no such thing as an 18th edition tester. The Regs are for installation requirements only
The standards for test meters are BS 61010 and BS 61326 and other specific standards but NEVER BS7671

With the 18th edition coming out, will this just mean more rules broken? Judging by the number of questions on this forum most electricians struggle with the 17th edition! I assume any installations wired under the 17th edition are now dangerous? Mmm better think about rewiring my stables. Only...
Hi,
Complete laymen to the electrical world so need some advice.
We had a complete rewire done in 2016 and as part of this we had an RCBO unit put in. Today we have had an issue where there has been a loose connection and the board needs replacing. This is being done under our house cover but...
Since the dawn of time, people have been portraying things that they sell as more than what they are.
Last few years, you could buy 16th Edition testers, 17th Edition CCU's, etc. The only thing that is XXth Edition is the Regs, but already they are offering 18th Edition test kit.
They can call...
