Overview
The Builder Training Centre (The BTC) offers high quality structured 2391 Initial Verification Courses. These can be attended as a 5 day weekday course or, for those that have commitments during the week, over 2 consecutive weekends (1 being an extended weekend).
Our instructors are qualified, highly experienced, knowledgeable and enthusiastic Tradespersons, so students can take full advantage of all the tips of the trade, personal experiences and practical advice they offer. This short course is intensive, but no compromise is made on the course content. The atmosphere is relaxed and enjoyable which creates a good learning environment.
City & Guild’s 2391-50 Course at The Builder Training Centre is designed for anyone who is required to conduct Initial Verification of electrical Installations. You will need to have previous experience and fundamental knowledge of inspecting and testing of single and ideally 3 phase electrical installations. You will need to have obtained previous electrical qualifications, able to work with minimal supervision, work safely, able to identify faults and ensure all your work meets the required standards. This course will enable you to update your knowledge of techniques and legislation and gain the relevant qualification to reflect your abilities.
This qualification is particularly relevant to those wishing to verify new installations and perhaps not required to carry out periodic inspection and testing, such as Domestic Installers.
