The Domestic Electrical Installer covers electrical work as outlined in the Building Regulation and complies with BS7671:2018.

This course is designed for persons working within the electrical or related industries it is not designed to take a non-qualified / non-related person and make them into electricians.

NB:  From the 6th April 2013 the qualification entry requirements for companies or businesses wishing to join a Part P Competent Person Scheme (CPS) changed. The relevant change is for the designated qualifying supervisor (QS). In a larger organisation, the QS will be responsible for the competence and work of all installers carrying out electrical installations. Sole traders are both the QS and installer. The QS must hold as minimum the Level 3 Certificate in Installing, Testing and Ensuring Compliance of Electrical Installation Work in Dwellings. For larger businesses, the DEI qualification can still be used for operatives who are under the direction of the qualifying supervisor. Sole traders must comply with the qualification entry requirement detailed above. The awarding body is LOGIC Certification
