Following the publication of the 18th Edition of the Wiring Regulations last month, we have produced a short guide to clarify the publications to be used in our electrical exams and centre assessments.
You can download the guide here.
We have also made updates to a number of our electrical qualifications.
Available for all learners registered from July:
EAL Level 3 Diploma in Electrical Installation 600/9331/6
- a new unit for the 18th Edition ('pathway transfer' available to 18th Edition Version)

The pathway transfer facility, where allowed, will enable centres to transfer learners onto the newer 18th Edition version of the qualification. This will benefit centres and learners by providing a qualification version appropriate to the publications the learner holds. Guidance is available in EAL Connect (see Guidance Documents and Change Qualification Pathway).
Further guidance is also provided in our qualification manuals, which are also available via EAL Connect.
