What training/qualifications/letters are needed to do caravan site electrical inspections/certificates?
Sorry about the long subject! :-)
I know (too much!?) about Part P but was wondering if the requirements for someone who can issue site inspection certificates for caravan site electrics are the same, or more stringent, or what? This is the certificate required for 'Certificated' sites which are sites approved by the Caravan Club or the Camping and Caravanning Club (and some others now I believe) for up to five caravans. These often provide electrical hook-ups via what in french are called 'bornes', not sure what they are in english. These sites need an annually renewed inspection certificate for their electrics. -- Chris Green |

There is a City and Guilds qualification (C&G 2391) which cerifies competence in "Verification, Inspection, Testing and Certification" Most electricians seem to struggle with the practical assessment and written examination which should mean that someone who holds the qualification is in a higher order than the rest. Having said that much of the training for a "part P" competent electrician should cover the basic testing knowledge groundwork upon which to build whereas I know too many "old hands" who bumble along for years without killing anyone |
