Why is the C&G 2382-22 18th Edition Course Important?
The C&G 2382-22 18th Edition course is a crucial qualification for anyone working in electrical installations. It’s linked to the 18th Edition of the Wiring Regulations, also known as BS 7671:2018, which sets the official standard for electrical work in the UK.
Staying Legal
The 18th Edition is the current legal benchmark for electrical work in the UK. If you’re an electrician or electrical engineer, this course makes sure you’re certified to carry out work that meets those required regulations. Without it, you could end up working outside the law, which brings risks like penalties or unsafe setups.
Putting Safety First
Working safe is essential in the industry, at Elec training we show you how to do it properly. The course covers all the latest safety practices, from avoiding electric shocks to preventing fires and managing overcurrent issues. Being up to date on these things helps protect you, your team, and your clients on every job you do.
Career Progression
Having the C&G 2382-22 qualification on your CV shows you’re serious about your trade. It’s a respected credential that tells employers and clients you’re keeping up with industry standards. That kind of credibility can open more doors.
Keeping Pace with Technology
The electrical world is always evolving. Whether it’s electric vehicle charging points or renewable energy systems, the 18th Edition includes guidance on modern technologies. This course gets you ready to handle those changes and stay ahead of the curve.
What Will I Learn On This Course?
Why Take This Course?
At Elec Training, we’re not just here to teach you the basics. Our main goal is to help you feel confident and capable, so you can take on your own electrical projects with pride once you finish the course.

On top of that, they’re passionate about teaching and know how to support you every step of the way.
Throughout the course, we’ll cover all parts of the Wiring Regulations in detail. You’ll learn everything from earthing systems and fault protection to cable calculations and how to handle more complex commercial and industrial environments. Our tutors will be right there with you, helping you understand the material and prepare for your assessments.
If you’ve already completed your Level 2 and Level 3 qualifications and are looking to become a Domestic Installer, this course is a crucial next step. It also opens the door to joining industry bodies like NICEIC and NAPIT, giving you the ability to certify your own work. And if your goal is to become a fully qualified JIB Electrician, this course is a key part of the journey.

Course Assessments
You’ll be taking the same exam as those on the full three-day course. That’s because City and Guilds hasn’t introduced a shorter top-up version for the 18th Edition, unlike what they did for the 17th. The assessment is a two-hour online multiple-choice exam, held on the final afternoon of your course.
You can bring your blue 18th Edition Regulations book (BS 7671) into the exam and use it if you need to. Since you’ll have around two minutes per question, it’s important to not only know the regulations but also be comfortable finding your way around the book.
Make sure to bring a valid photo ID, like a passport or driving license. You won’t be able to take the exam without it.
