ECA told me I had to do Part P

[kablue2000]

hello everybody,

I phoned ECA to become part of there scheme, and they told me i had to do a part P course,even though i have done a 2330 level 2 and 3 2381 and 2391.Has anyone else had this?
Do they mean 2393 building regs?

2381 is the old 16th i think.

If so then they are correct and you need to do the 2382 update course.

Someone will be along to clarify...

sorry maybe made mistake i did the 17th regs last year might of got code wrong

ECA "technically" dont do part P.

Elecsa are the part P arm of the ECA.

If that makes sense.

But i believe if you wanted to do commercial etc as well as P, then you would have to pay for both schemes.

thanks for quick reply, I mainly do commercial / industrial work.If i have got to pay for both schemes maybe niceic would be better

think they have it wrong
your qualifications are fine to be enrolled on a competent persons scheme as long as you can pass the assessment
