10 Day Intro & Part P Course

Able Skills has devised various training packages to cover the requirements of domestic installation and at the end the courses, students will have a sufficient level of competence so that once registered with a Part P Governing body, they will be able to work safely, efficiently and legally on electrical equipment.

With the introduction to a change in the building regulations came the need by law, for most electrical work in domestic dwellings to be notified to the local authority building control. The exception to this is where the work is undertaken by a competent person who is a member of a Governing body and is registered onto a Part P Scheme.

A competent person is someone who is approved by one of the governing bodies approved by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister, this is known as the Part P Scheme; the scheme does require that you can prove competency, and upon registering onto a scheme, you will be assessed by the governing body you choose.

Persons registered with the Part P Self-Certification Schemes will be qualified with the ability to thoroughly check a circuit for safety. They are required to issue an Electrical Installation Certificate that complies with Building Regulation requirements when the work has been completed.

We have devised this combined package to provide the minimum requirements for Part P registration, if you would like to learn more and gain additional relevant qualifications, please visit Part P for Beginners or Part P Package with C&G 2392
