Part p

[ABerry82]

if you join the NICEIC do you still need to do part p. or does the niceic cover this

 

[GLENNSPARK]

could you not legally test your work if you have part p and 2382 inspection and testing?

2382 inspection and testing?.....do you mean the 2392?....

 

[ABerry82]

2382 inspection and testing?.....do you mean the 2392?....

2391 inspection and testing

 

[ABerry82]

the only reason i was thinking about joining the NIC is so i could get council work

 

[telectrix]

most of which is poorly paid, up to 60 days late, bureaucrats breathing down your neck, forget it.

2382 inspection and testing?.....do you mean the 2392?....

apologies, yes i meant the level 2 inspection and testing 2392 with part p

 

[ABerry82]

yea i can see your point. at the mo i work in tradepoint whilst getting my gear ready to go it alone and alot of the work i have picked up is property developers which means at some point i will need to be able to certify

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
partp is within building regulations and must be complied with do do this you either contact labs and pay their fees for every notifiable job you do or join a scheme provider and pay their fees and they notify labs for you, as labs fees can be quite expensive it usually works out cheaper to join a scheme provider

This thread is covering a load of crap which has previously been covered more times than enough, when will the penny drop?

PART P IS NOT AND NEVER WILL BE A QUALIFICATION. It is a part of the building regulations, and they go from Part A to Part P, A,B,C, and so on.

You can not get a qualification for a building regulation, you have to comply with them, they are a set of rules, no more, no less, except that we have a legal requirement to comply with them.

Look at it like this,

You trained to drive your car, and then passed a test, easy yes. But then did you have to go and get a qualification in speed limits? in order to be able to comply with them.......NO you did not, but you still get shafted if you get caught breaking them. I have never heard any driver asking "do i need to comply with speed limits".

Rant over.............Howard

There are 3 different grades of the 2391.
2391-10 which is normal testing
2391-20 which is advanced testing
2391-30 which is technician grade testing

 

[GLENNSPARK]

i`l give you a tip here mate.....if/ when you decide to join one of these schemes.....personaly i woild go with elecsa first as you dont need to put your asessment job through the LABC....unlike the NIC...so there about £180 saving for a start......the scam providers only require you to prove competency.....and for that you would need to hold the 2382..17th edition.....you will need the new (green) books....and also to download a copy of the memerandum of guidance on the electricity at work regulations 1989.....minimum of £2,000,000 public liability......a callibrated MFT..or seperates ..your choice that are able to carry out the relevent tests....an approved voltage indicator (for demonstrating how to do a safe isolation)......

apologies, yes i meant the level 2 inspection and testing 2392 with part p

the C&G 2392 was brought in for initial verefication testing.....and was seen as a `go between`.....that is as a stepping stone towards attaining the C&G2391......it could have gone either 1 of 2 ways here in order to address the appaling pass rate of the 2391....either `dumb down` the 2391...a bad move.........or bring in a course that introduces people to testing.......the right way to go........

Beware of the N2391 - a Napit piece of paper masquarading as a serious C & G exam.
