Considering that the country seems to be short of electricians, I wonder who is going to install all the electric vehicle charging points that will be required very soon as the EV really takes a hold. I understand that the installer needs to be approved by the OLEV and will need to be trained to C&G2919-02 or similar, but its what comes before that stage that I am concerned about. From knowing nothing about electricity, it is now possible it seems to become an electrician with just 18 days training (C&G 4141-01, 2393-10, 2382-18).
I did a four year apprenticeship and could understand the training becoming shorter, but 18 days?
Once the EV charger install rush is over what will all these "trained" domestic installers be doing?
