ELESCA Wanting 17th Edition Cert

[BangTidy]

Hi just applied to join ELESCA and have been told I need to produce a 17th edition certificate for my assessment. I started all my training from 2008 and my JIB card states that i have the 17th edition as I have done the 2391 and NVQ 3 through the years.
Does it sound like the ELESCA rep is wrong or am in going to have to fork out £80+ for the exam only?

Cheers

I am with Elecsa and did my qualification to 17th edition. You prove this by showing your certificates and from that the assessor will know you trained to 17th

I would say that you will be OK if you can demonstrate the qualifications you have an demonstrate that you understand the 17th Edition requirements.

Elecsa say on their website that the assessment will require

IET Wiring Regulations
You must be able to demonstrate a full grasp of the latest
Wiring Regulations. Without a detailed grasp of the 17th
Edition wiring regulations it is unlikely that you will be able
to pass the assessment and may require additional training
before being reassessed. Any qualifications presented should
be from a recognised awarding body. If you need to discuss
this further, please contact us directly.

aye...pathetic innit...

my nan could pass it

I know you are making a point but that is a ridiculous thing to say.

2382 may be very easy to those who know but that is its purpose and what it shows.



Give your Nan the book and ask her what is the maximum Zs for a C32 60898.
Let us know when she finds it.

I reckon she cackles loudly, throws it back at you unopened, says "0.8x230/(10x32) ohms, measured" and returns to her People's Friend crossword.

She said " is that all you got. Max Zs values ? " with a chuckle.

I was told last year at college by my lecturer that there was no need for me to do the 17th due to my 2365 being 17th but he said other people don't understand e.g. Agencies, employers that

Will your training provider do you a letter saying dear whoever, this person's training meets and indeed far exceeds a 2382 17th Ed exam, you are basically telling Shakespeare to go away and come back with his English Language O-level certificate, OK maybe not the last bit. I appreciate you don't need any such letter and it might be galling to have to ask for any such thing and it means going along with stupidity, but sometimes you have to spot when you're banging your head against a brick wall of stupidity and have to go around.
