Part P relates specifically to electrical safety in dwellings and affects all individuals whether they are carrying out addition or alterations to electrical systems or new installations.
Part P covers work in dwellings, combined dwelling and business premises having common supply (shops, pubs etc.), common access areas in flats. It also applies to outbuildings such as sheds, garages and greenhouses.
There are five government approved Part P Competent Person Schemes, these being:
NICEIC
BSI
ELECSA
BRE Certification
NAPIT
Electrical qualifications area requirement of membership for all the government Approved Competent Person Schemes.
By successfully becoming a member of Part P Accreditation Scheme, the individual will be able to self certify his/her work and register it with Building Control via their membership body.
As a registered/approved training centre with EAL and NICEIC, the Faraday Centre delivers the EAL Level II Certificate for Domestic Electrical Installers course. This course covers 17 modules and includes various practical training elements.
Assessment on the course is done throughout with a practical and/or written test being conducted on each of the modules. At the end of the course, candidates are also required to complete a multiple-choice online exam (20 questions, 40 minutes)
This is an intensive course some prior experience in electrical installation, inspection and testing of electrical installations would be an advantage.
This course is designed to give candidates an appreciation of working with electrical equipment in areas that could potentially contain flammable/explosive liquids, gases or dust.
The three day HAZ is not the full Ex or COMPEX qualification. It provides an overview and appreciation of working with electrical equipment in hazardous areas but does not end in the full COMPEX assessment. Candidates will learn about the relevant gases, vapours, dusts and ignition sources and how these elements determine the areas classification. Candidates will also learn about the different methods of protection and the safe working practices, along with relevant standards and certifications. At the end of the course, candidates will be expected to select the appropriate equipment and determine why those selections provide protection fitting for that area.
These courses are designed for personnel working within hazardous area environments. Each course provides an overview of the hazards associated with installing, operating and maintaining electrical equipment within potentially explosive areas.
