Electrical Competency, what is it?

David Stone

I want to move to a slightly different branch of the EICR question, and this should cover the range of Electrical work. What makes an Electrician Competent? What makes an Inspector competent, whether for an EICR or EICs?

    What makes anyone competent?

    Competence is a combination of the following attributes:
    Skils
    Knowledge
    Attitude
    Training
    Experience
    Knowledge of one's own limitations

    We can't agree as an industry on what skills, knowledge and training are necessary as a minimum, and if and how these can be properly assessed.

    Once you reach “competent” things don't stop there, because, as technology and installation practices move on, so the competent person needs to keep up-to-date.
