Part P for Qualified Electricians

Welcome to Able Skills Part P training page, suitable for the more experienced domestic installer

If you are a time served and qualified Electrician who is looking for a fast track route to Part P registration then we have a training course option which may be the answer you have been looking for.

In just 1 day we are able to bring you up to date with relevant building regulations and prepare you for a multiple choice exam.

The primary aim of this knowledge based qualification is to enable practising electricians, who are also operating in the domestic environment, to gain an understanding of how electrical installations in dwellings must comply with all relevant Building Regulations.

It will also be suitable for those working in the building trades and others who require a working knowledge of how electrical installations in dwellings can affect the building construction.

This qualification, along with your supporting Electrical qualifications (C&G 2360 OR C&G 2330) will enable you to register onto a Part P scheme.

Entry Requirements:

It is recommended that any candidate considering this Part P course holds C&G 2360 Part 1 or C&G 2330 level 2 or equivalent and has a considerable amount of up to date experience within the domestic sector.

Able Skills is open 7 days every week and we welcome visitors at all times. Please feel free to come along to view our facilities, have an informal chat with any one of our instructors and meet existing students.

We feel that this is an excellent introduction for anyone looking to invest in training and this option will help you decide if Able Skills is where you want to train.

CDEI/001 Applicable Building Regulations for Domestic Electrical Installation

This is a 1 day classroom based training course and the day will be spent gaining a comprehensive understanding of Part P of the Building Regulations.

At the end of the training session, a 40 minute multiple choice on-line exam will be undertaken and a Certificate in Building Regulations for Electrical Installations will be claimed for those candidates who successfully pass.

Unit 1 is specifically designed for those who wish to understand how building regulations apply to domestic electrical installations. This unit is of particular value to all electrical installers, and can be taken on its own or as part of the full qualification depending on a candidate’s existing qualifications, knowledge and experience.
