18th Edition is the latest edition of the wiring regulations. They are a set of guidelines that outline the standard for safe electrical work. Anybody working with electrical installations should have a good working knowledge of these regs. We offer a 3-day course that will get you up to speed with the regulations and prepare you for the exam.

18th edition courses

Why do I need to know the 18th Edition?

If you don’t have an understanding of the 18th Edition, or don’t know what the regulations include, your installations may not meet the current industry standard, which could mean that your installations are unsafe or inefficient. Additionally, if you don’t have this qualification you may find it difficult to secure work with large companies and contractors.

What will I learn?

This course is entirely classroom based, it introduces wiring regulations in a straightforward manner and covers their application through explanation and worked examples.

You'll be taught by our instructors who are experts on the subject. Our electrical instructors have been studying and teaching the 18th edition since its release back in July 2018.

After the 3-days of studying it will be time for the exam. The exam is is a 2-hour multiple-choice, on-line examination. The exam is 'open book', meaning that you will be able to look up wiring regulations and refer to the 18th edition book during the exam process.
