Course code: C&G2391-10

The Faraday Centre is an MoD ELCAS Approved Training Provider for this course

Introduction

This course is designed around the required syllabus for the City & Guilds 2391-10 exam and qualification. It is an advanced qualification and is becoming an industry standard for electricians and other contractors who are required to test and inspect their own, or others electrical installations. Candidates should provide their own copy of the BS7671 IEE 17th Edition Wiring Regulations, IEE On-site Guide and Guidance Notes 3.

Candidates may find it beneficial to attend our LVTI course - Practical Introduction to the Safe and Correct Use of Low Voltage Test Instruments as a pre-cursor to this course.

Participants

This course is intended for experienced personnel working in the electrical industry. Although City & Guilds does not state formal candidate entry requirements, the course is not intended for non-qualified electricians or those who do not have experience in inspection, testing and certifying electrical installations operating up to 1000 volts. Participants should possess relevant experience and City & Guilds 2382 or equivalent qualification, e.g. Level 3 Electro-technical Certificate. Proof of certification will be required at the time of booking the course along with photographic identification.
