Transferring Skills From CEng to be Qualified Electrician

Paul Cardle
Hi, 



I would like to become a qualified electrician and was wondering if anyone had done this from being CEng? 



What are the processes for becoming a qualified electrician? 



I have the following qualifications:

Chartered Engineer. 

BSc Electronic and Electrical Engineering

National Certificate In Electrical Engineering.

C&G 2382:10. 



This may sound like an unusual move but it is something Iw ant to do for a variety of reasons. 



Any info appreciated.

    Hi Paul



    There are no specific qualifications, and are in principle more qualified than almost all electricians. You should develop your practical skills (if not excellent already) probably by some text book study, and consider C&G2395. You should easily get NICEIC or other part P provider recognitian, should you wish to do domestic work. Following the IET wiring regulations forum for a few months will pick up many points which you may otherwise find difficult to study, and will act as considerable useful experience.



    You may wish to study some design texts, and of course a complete and accurate knowledge of BS7671 is useful, there is a lot more than 2382 requires! Some others have done this change, I hope it works for you.



    Regards
