I wrote the exam in April and this helped me tremendously and am positive that I, not only passed, but well enough to be jubilant. Now, I am looking forward to doing paper 1.

The fundamental principles underlying these codes of practice are primarily intended to ensure the safety of persons, livestock and property against hazards that may arise during the normal operation and the proper functioning of an electrical installation. Any person attempting the examination must be able to apply the Regulations mentioned above to design, construct, inspect, verify and test electrical installations accordingly, and thereby ensuring a safe and healthy environment.
