Online C&G Inspection and Testing Refresher Course

Course Objectives

This course is intended for anyone who needs to improve their inspection and testing skills before taking an advanced inspection and testing course or assessment. This course is not an introduction to inspection and testing. For that you will require our C&G 2392 course or cover it as part of your Level 3 diploma. The course if very useful for the following groups:

• • Students who are preparing for AM2 assessment.
  • Corporate CPD for standardisation.
  • Existing electricians who want to refresh their testing knowledge.
  • Existing electricians about to undertake a CPS (competent person scheme) assessment.
  • Students who are preparing for C&G 2391 course and would like to refresh their knowledge of testing. (There are no practical demonstrations in 2391

10 individual eLearning modules covering single and three phase testing including:

1. Continuity of circuit protective conductors (including main and supplementary bonding) (SP/TP)
2. Continuity of ring final circuit conductors (SP)
3. Insulation resistance (SP/TP)
4. Earth electrode resistance (including theory on test method E1, E2, E3 and practical demonstration on test method E1 – Fall of potential method.)
5. Polarity and phase sequencing (SP/TP)
6. Earth fault loop impedance (Ze and Zs at DB) (SP/TP)
7. Prospective fault current
8. Earth faut loop impedance (Zs)
9. Residual current device (RCD)
10. Knowledge checks (2 x 50 question online quizzes)

These modules are each broken down into individual sections including:

• Procedure (theory) – Including plenty of images & voice overs. This is to talk students through the procedure including setting up the instrument and what the inspector is looking for in terms of results.
• Practical demonstrations single and three phase. These are videos which show the tests in full.
• Recording the tests. This section shows how to record the results following the demonstrations.
• Verification of results. This section shows how to verify that the results comply with BS 7671 and are satisfactory.
• Scientific principles. Where relevant, scientific principles are introduced to help learners better understand the science behind the test.
• Knowledge check after each test around 10 questions after each section.
• 2 x full length exam simulators designed to test full range of knowledge once course is complete.
