To help those affected by the 17th edition amendments, Tradeskills4u will be holding a one off free seminar on 17th August 2011 at 6.30pm, aimed at all those involved in the electrical installation industry.
Professionals such as designers, engineers, electricians, electrical contractors, maintenance technicians, project managers or tutor/trainers in these areas, will need to know about the following changes and additions:
· Measures against electromagnetic disturbances - new section 444;
· Devices for protection against overvoltage (surge protection) - new section 534;
· Medical locations - new Section 710;
· Operating or maintenance gangways - New Section 729;
· Model forms for certification and reporting - Appendix 6;
This evening theory course covers the regulation changes being introduced by the First Amendment to the 17th Edition Wiring Regulations, published in July 2011. It is designed for those who’ve already completed the City & Guilds 2382 17th Edition course. There is no assessment involved as there isn’t a qualification specific to this course. However, delegates will receive a Trade Skills 4U Certificate of Attendance.
We’re also holding a Solar PV taster morning on the 20th August 2011 at 9am – 12pm to give those who may be interested in getting involved in photovoltaic installation.
