Part P
Part P of the Building Regulations state that a significant proportion of all electrical work carried out in dwellings in England and Wales has to be notified to the Local Authority Building Control (LABC) department.
Operatives carrying out electrical work can become members of a competent person’s scheme which will allow the operative to self-certify the work and scheme provider will notify LABC on the operative’s behalf. No further visits or costs will be incurred from LABC.
BPEC has developed a training manual for Part P Defined Scope aimed at all industries within the building services engineering sector.
It goes without saying that the safety of both the installer and the customer is of paramount importance. The courses are designed to ensure that simple and safe installation practices are established from the start and followed throughout their duration.

- Basic principles
- Legislation and regulations
- Electrical safety
- Installation theory
- Testing and documentation
- Installation practical
Particular emphasis is given to the testing of installations both prior to and after their completion, these tests will include:
- Polarity
- Continuity of earthing conductors
- Polarity
- Insulation resistance
- Earth loop impedance
- RCD
The training and assessments are currently available at many of the BPEC approved centres throughout the country. To find your nearest centre please use the postcode search by clicking here.
