Mains Compliance
Course Overview
This essential mains compliance course for all those who work on or near a live electrical supply and need to ensure that they are a ‘competent person’ under the terms of the ‘electricity at work’ regulations. If you wish to install security systems (with the exception of Fire Panels) or other electrical equipment in commercial or domestic properties, this course will teach you how to install fused spurs and conduct other work safely, efficiently and legally within current legislation. This course allows you to undertake ‘minor works’ to an existing electrical circuit, for example adding an additional socket or a fused spur, that does not involve the addition of a new circuit. Although this work does not have to be undertaken by a registered electrician and you do not need to notify your local building control office, all electrical work must comply with BS 7671, the wiring regulations.
