Design & Verification of Electrical Installations 2396 – 01

COURSE OVERVIEW

The course consists of college attendance, a 40 hour project (completed in your own time) and a final exam. The course is set at level 4 which is one level higher than other electrical qualifications and at the same level as year one of university study. The 2396 is a 3 month long course intended to train you to design electrical installations. Whilst rooted in BS 7671 it expects students to interpret and apply regulations using standard design practices. You will be required to show good progress with your project work before the College will allow you take the written exam. Help will be given during the course with the project but this work must be done in your own time. Course content includes:

  • Statutory and non-statutory requirements relating to electrical installation design, construction management and verification
  • The electrical installation design, construction and commissioning process
  • BS 7671 requirements relating to electrical installation design
  • Design and verification procedures for single and poly phase electrical installations
  • Fundamental principles for the design and installation of associated protective systems relating to electrical installations
  • Factors that affect choice of alternative energy sources and environmental technologies used within electrical installation design

This course is also available as a day time course.
