Introduction to BS 7671 (Online Course)

The online course provides a basic introduction to BS 7671. The aim of the course is to

ensure that delegates can successfully navigate and find key information from the IET Wiring

Regulations (BS 7671). It is estimated that this introductory course will only take a few

hours to complete, and can be completed in stages.

To complete the online course, candidates will need access to Requirements for Electrical

Installations (18th Edition Wiring Regulations) BS 7671:2018.

The online component complements the material that will be covered on the day-training

course. To get the most from the training day we recommend that delegates complete the

online course element before attending the day- course. However, delegates can complete

the online element up to one-month after the training course date.

Requirements for Electrical Installations to BS 7671:2018 This one day training course covers: • Fundamental Requirements • Definitions • Assessment of General Characteristics • Protection for Safety • Selection & Erection of Equipment • Verification • Special Installation or Locations There are assessments at various points in the day. These consist of workbook exercises and multiple choice questions. Candidates must successfully complete BOTH the online course and the day-course before we can apply for the certificate from the SQA.
