part P is an understanding of the Building regulations however there is an on-line exam you have to take regardless of your qualifications or experience in order to prove you understanding of the building regs

It is a document, nothing else

part p is split up into 9 units, if you are a qualified electrician then you have to do unit 1 only which is an on-line exam multi choice, if you are not an electrician then you have to do all 9 units (1 on-line exam and 8 paper exams) as well as some practical units.The 8 paper exams are designed to test your electrical knowledge, the on-line exam test your knowledge of the building regs, online exam has 20 Q, 4 on building regs, 8 on part p, 8 on other approved documents need 14 to pass.

I cant see any Part P exam either! I have never done any actual exam for Part P - like it has already been said, Part P is a document, not a qualification - can you elaborate more on the exam title or details? Its not something to do with the Home Inspections Packs or something along those lines is it?

Is it the EAL Domestic Electrical Installer course ? That advertises as a Part P Course! Like everyone else here is saying, i dont think there is an exam as such to make you Part P registered! You just need to have the relevant qualifications and be assessed buy the correct bodies such as NAPIT NIC ELECSA etc

In answer to the second part of your question, I think the Electricians Guide to the Building Regs is a must!

The short answer is no, but you'll be asked a few building reg's questions on your technical assessment ;)

no . to self certify your work, you need to join elecsa or napit. there is another body but the name escapes me. they asses a major job and a minor and you pay them oodles of dosh.

Coateskid, I think I know the course you are talking about. The EAL Level 2 for Domestic Electrical Installers? If you got it for free then thats great. Any education is great, free education is even greater.

Without understanding a couple of parts of the 'Electricians Guide to the Building Regulations' you will not pass that exam.

To pass the EAL exam you MUST understand Table 1 and Table 2 on page 21, as well as the additional notes on page 22 and page 23. You also need to understand ALL of chapter 10.





Please don't slate me for offering this info guys, yes Part P has chaos spread all around it, however, Coateskid was asking a simple question and I hope I have typed the simple answer.

All the best.
