Discuss When is the 18th Edition not the 18th Edition? in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Anyone can pass the multi choice exam on BS7671 Regs without understanding it or even having any site experience. Colleges don't teach the Regs they teach you how to pass the exam.

Good luck passing the Design and Verification exam on the Regs without a thorough understanding of the Requirements for Electrical Installations, which is BS7671, commonly known as the Regs.
 
Where does that come from?

Here

Hi Dillb
The OSG from the IET states the 100Amp max as well, introductions page 11
And I quote "this guide is restricted to installations"
a) at a supply frequency of 50hz
b) at a nominal voltage of 230Vac single phase or 400/ 230 Vac 3 phase
c) supplied through a distributors cut-out having a fuse rated at 100A or less to one of the following standards
BS 88-2
BS 88-3
BS88-6
BS 1361 TYPE 2

 
Colleges don't teach the Regs they teach you how to pass the exam.

That's what the guy who was doing out 17th ED course said to us.
"I'm not here to teach you the regs but to pass the exam"
 
Maybe we can just buy the exam success book for any course and sit a £50 exam. Then the buggers charging hundreds of pounds for the same thing can get a proper job and do a day's work
