City & Guilds 2391-52 Initial & Periodic Inspection and Testing Qualification

Course details

With very recent changes by City & Guilds with their full Initial and Periodic Inspection & Testing qualifications, Training in Electrical is now pleased to offer this brand new combined version, the 2391-52 package. This new 2391 now replaces the 2394 and 2395 qualifications. This 5-day course not only covers the initial inspection and testing of all single and three phase electrical systems but also includes the undertaking of Periodic Condition Reporting for domestic, commercial and Industrial installations.

This brand new qualification has undergone a complete redevelopment by City & Guilds, and candidates are now required to complete only 1x on-line open book multiple choice assessment, 1x practical assessment and a small written question paper. All of which are now open book and includes the use of the 17th Edition Wiring Regulations , On-site Guide and Guidance Note 3 during the on-line assessment. With candidates only having to now achieve these 3x assessments to gain their full City & Guilds Initial and Periodic qualification will certainly make this new course very desirable and achievable.

This award is ideal for experience and newly qualified persons, as there are now no entry requirement to enrol onto this course, however, candidates will be assessed individually on their capability prior to acceptance onto the course.

It is worth noting that the new 2391 qualification can be studied individually with us as either Initial verification only (2391-50) or Periodic Condition reporting (2391-51), however both have to be achieved for JIB grading as an Approved Electrician.

This course is designed to give you the understanding of the principles, practices and legislation for the initial verification and periodic condition reporting of all types of electrical installations.
Its content covers the skills and necessary background knowledge for the inspection, testing, commissioning and certification of electrical installations.

This electrical course includes both theory and more importantly hands on experience testing real life installations at our training centre. You will have the opportunity to use a variety of the latest testers kindly supplied by our test instrument sponsors, Megger, Fluke and Dilog.

The course content covers the following areas:
• Introduction to Inspection, Testing & Condition Reporting
• Requirements for initial verification
• Requirements for Periodic Condition Reporting
• Guidance Note 3
• Pre work survey
• Safe use of test equipment
• Complying with BS7671 wiring regulations
• Safe isolation procedures
• Order of tests
• Continuity of protective conductors
• Insulation resistance tests
• Polarity tests
• Earth electrode tests
• Earth fault loop impedance tests
• RCD testing
• Condition Reporting/Periodic Inspection
• Recording and completion of test results
• Completion of Condition Reports
• Commissioning of electrical installations
• Practical Hands on skills
• Exam preparation

At the end of the course candidates are expected to complete only one multiple choice; a small written exercise and a practical examination with results being supplied prior to leaving the centre. You will have then achieved the knowledge and practical skills to safely undertake inspection and testing work in both domestic, commercial and industrial premises.
