17th Edition Wiring Regulations BS7671:2008 full course City & Guilds 2382-10

Course summary
With the Health and Safety Executive recently publishing an increase in the number of fatalities in the workplace in the UK, there has never been a better time to ensure compliance and increase awareness of BS7671:2008 ( the 17th Edition of the Wiring Regulations).

The BS7671:2008 is the Wiring Regulations. These are the national standards to which all domestic, commercial and industrial wiring must conform. The 17th Edition has been updated to be more in line with other European standards.

Our BS7671:2008 17th Edition Wiring Regulations training course is focused on providing people with a clear understanding and appreciation of the current Regulations that apply to domestic, commercial and industrial work areas. An understanding of the Wiring Regulations is important for all maintenance people in industry. If a job involves working with plant, machinery products or the infrastructure that is powered by electricity, people should be aware of the standards as stated in BS7671:2008. The new 17th Edition came into effect on the 1st July 2008.
