1 Day Update – 18th Edition Wiring Regulations

This is an upgrade to and will replace, the already existing City & Guilds 17th Edition Wiring Regulations all subsequent amendments.

Course Description:

If you have passed your 17th Edition since the last amendment then you are eligible to take this short 1 day 18th Edition update course! Save time and money by covering the topics you need for the new regulations, without having to go over all that you already know.

If you have not yet done the 17th Edition then you will need to take our 3 day 18th Edition course.

Changes for 18^th Edition are as follows:

• Protection against overvoltages – Clause 443 is likely to be overhauled.
• Protection against fire – Chapter 42 will be updated with extra information on arc fault detection
• Electrical Embedded heating – Section 753 will be extended to include embedded electrical heating systems for surface heating, and will include de-icing and frost prevention systems.
• Energy efficiency – There will be a brand new section covering energy efficiency

Please be aware that the Wiring Regulations course is not designed to teach you every regulation in the book but it will teach you the best practices on how to reference the latest regulations as you would on the job. As such key topics currently covered on the 17th Edition will still be included.

We have been delivering Wiring Regulations courses for many years and although it is mainly theory based you cannot beat real training in a real classroom. By training with other people in your class you will benefit from being able to ask relevant questions as well as finding the answers to many questions from your fellow students that you may not have even thought of.
