supposing i wanted to make the leap from diy'er to basic certification, i presume from what i've read so far that the domestic installer qualification would be best, having had a quick look on there website, i notice :-
F/102/7127 - Applicable building regulations for domestic electrical installation
J/102/7128 - Electrical safety legislation, regulations, standards and terminology
L/102/7129 - Domestic electrical installation – pre work survey/inspection
F/102/7130 - Domestic electrical installation – safe isolation procedures
J/102/7131 - Identifying unsafe electrical situations
L/102/7132 - Domestic electrical earthing and bonding requirements
R/102/7133 - Electrical test procedures
Y/102/7134 - Selecting domestic electrical cable and components
D/102/7135 - Installing and replacing electrical components
H/102/7136 - Checking the correct and safe operation of installed electrical components
K/102/7137 - Recording of electrical test results and completing certificates
M/102/7138 - Installing and/or rerouting domestic electrical cables
T/102/7139 - Domestic electrical installation – special locations
K/102/7140 - Understanding of new domestic electrical circuit requirements
M/102/7141 - Installing domestic lighting circuits
T/102/7142 - Maintaining domestic electrical installations
A/102/7143 - Basic understanding of 3 phase supplies
now, it's easy to say yea i understand 3 phase based on info from this forum, but i never had any reason to know it before, also from other qualifications i have, some answers have to be specifically worded, an answer in laymans terminology isn't good enough....
so where would i look to see if my knowledge is good enough to consider doing this course? the module's they state above, is there a course that goes with this which would ensure my knowledge is upto scratch? what should i be reading inline with this qualification to prepare & ensure i am actually ready for it?
(i realise there are lots of good / essential publications like 17th edition, building regs Part P, L & M etc, but i mean directly inline with the course)
thanks
