- Tips and Tricks that personally helped me PASS the 18th Edition Wiring Regulations Exam.
I Personally Took The Exam In May And Got 59/60 or 98% Of The Questions Correct
1. Label Your Regs Book w/ Post It Notes
2. The Exam Goes In Order From Part 1 - Appendices Except For A Few Questions
3. Buy A Scientific Calculator And Write The Formula For Volt Drop In Your Reg Book Notes - VD= (mV/A/m) x L x Ib / 1000
4. Download The IET Wiring Regs App (£4 on App Store)
5. DO YOUR REVISION/MOCK EXAMS!
If you have the time and money I would suggest to do the 3 day course as this wont only help you get through the exam it will help with understanding the book and why its used.

Baffles me that you can pay £90 for a book printed on tissue paper that doesn’t even have the page numbers on the contents for each chapter. Classic example of them having zero competition and producing the lowest standard product possible
Turn those pages too quick a they rip well easy
Really helpful mate, thanks for taking the time to make this video
Thank you for sharing your experience.
Great video mate, very helpful. Many thanks
Thanks for the app recommendation bro!
Bro that app has helped me so much. Thank you
Cheers mate great tips, you should do a monthly video on electrical fault finding and tips
Thanks pal. I’m going to start doing some stuff on site / make a video for the 2391-52 👌🏼
Great video!
Thank you so much for your videos
Great tips 👌🏾 🙏🏾
Great video , thank you !
Class
Great video mate👍🏻
Thanks mate. Hope it helps
I recently did an exam on Exporting goods. The book was a similar size to 18th edition and the same cost but it was so much better. The book had colour coded pages for each section , plastic dividers with build in Part tabs. Made the 18th edition book look a complete mess.
Thanks John.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for this. Very useful.
Thank you mate. Hope it helps 👍🏼
⭐️just what a beginner needs.
A heads up👍
👍🏼 hope it helps mate
Thanks mate.
Great video - Thank you
No worries mate hope it’s helpful
Really useful vid fella!
Thanks mate, Hope it helps 👍🏼
excellent video, been told you cant write in the book so not sure about doing that. will deffo get the app though cheers!
Great video mate, a lot of good ideas ,What scientific calculator would you advise to get?
Great little video , app was purchased!
Hi Rob, yeah the app was really good, it’s definitely much better than just reading the book.
Hello mate good video ! I’m currently on the some path as you. Be nice to see some more videos, I’m currently looking at booking my 18th before moving onto testing and inspection
Are you using the brown or blue onsite guide?
Great vid man, should post some of your work on here!
Thanks Pal, Might do in the near future
Quality Video Mate 👍🏼
Thank you 👍🏼
Do a follow up for inspection and testing mate
thanks for this video, I am a mechanical and electrical mulitskilled engineer by trade, not a pure bred electrician so was a little nervous and not sure what to expect. as its my first go at this,, this was very insightful thank you
How did it go?
I Passed it but only got around 70% but did all the study myself maybe I’d recommend paying for the 3 day 18th auditon course if your not a sparkie before.
@@TheAlexcutting 70% is very solid for a dual-trade specialist such as yourself. Any recommendations beyond that mentioned in this video?
Some good tips there for sure, definitely will me implementing the note tabs to speed up the search 👍. May be a silly question so appologies if so but is there any ideal order to get things done in the process of becoming fully qualified. Already have my level 3, month into working as an improver and just want to smash out the exam side of things asap. NVQ i understand will take time but is there any order with NVQ, AM2 and 18th? I'm guessing 18th may aswell be one of the last things because it has to be renewed?
Hello mate, in all honesty you should really do your 18th edition first in my opinion so you can understand the regulations behind the work you are doing as it makes things much clearer. 👍🏼
Thanks for this currently doing my 18th edition have exam in 4 wks time!
No problem. I hope this helps 👍🏼
hi mate, the same what I was thinking about,to purchase the book and practice,my question is did you take the exam online?if so what is the recommended site and if not any recommended center and is there any kinda practical assessment required?thank u in advance
Did you have you buy a separate Web cam for the exam or did you just use the one on the computer?
Hey John, nice suggestions. But tell me where can I get the 3 day course from? any links?
Hello I found the app very helpful, Did you sit the exam at home if so which web site did you use
Hey I have synoptic exam tomorrow. I know about the regulations and wires but I don’t what else would come up. Do u know where to get good info I’d really appreciate it
Hi do you think this app got same question know (2023) the 18th edition brown book. Thanks
Interesting that you've been able to write the volt drop formula in the book there. My training provider has drummed it into us that we can get disqualified if we are found to have written any notes like that in the book. Also you mention a scientific calculator, apparently this isn't allowed now either, only a simple basic calculator. I realise this video was a couple of years ago, maybe things have changed in that time. Nevertheless I found this video really useful and will definitely check out that app. Thanks for making this video
hello, in regard to the actual exam does it tell you which chapter/part on every question
Thanks mate because of your tips and the App I have passed today “Alhamdulillah” 😁 my next exam is the building reg the small green book any tips on that brother.
Hi mate, that’s great to hear. I’m really glad it helped! I haven’t got any tips on that but I’m going to upload a video on the 2391-52 in the new year if this is any good to you? 👍🏼
Thank you for your time and tips, very useful information.
Does anyone know how to transfer your full /payed version of the app to another device.I have it on my phone, but want it on my iPad as well..
Great video John! I've got a quick question, I'm thinking to do the 18th Edition exam online, so can I use the online version of 18th Edition book for the online exam? Or do I have to purchase and use the 18th Edition hardcopy book for the open book exam?
Will definitely need the book
What did you write on the postage notes apart from the parts
whats the big silver trophy for in the background mate
will the 18th edition app for £5.99 help with the ammendment 2 exam if you haven’t already done the 18th edition?
Thanks for the tips doing mine in December
Good luck mate just read the book and you’ll do fine 👍🏼
Thanks helpfull
Nice video make one for the 2391
Can’t believe I’ve just labelled my regs book up and downloaded a £4 app after watching this video. It’s Friday! Thanks for the info and advice! 🤞
What this for the 2392 exam ?
Did you pass pal
@Majid Abdul I did pass yeah… I didn’t smash it by any stretch of the imagination. Thanks for the advice, I wouldn’t have bothered with that app tho. It was superseded and had old questions in it 👍
@monks 'CYAS' was this for the onsite guide exam
@@monkscyas1022how did you revise for it though? Did you use a different website or app? And was it only using the 18th edition and just do the exam only online? I just pass my level 3 so I really need to know for this next step..
Which books to buy please for 18th edition and say if doing an nvq too
can we write in the book ? is it allowed to enter with the labeled book?
Where did/can you book exam only and how much did u pay for it?
I found one recently for £100
Hey, is it possible to attend this exam from outside UK ?
Cheers mate
No problems mate. Hope it helps you 👍🏼
@@johncanty2847 took my exam today. Got 100% 🥳Yay and thanks for the help!
@@THECARKUS congratulations mate! Hope the video was useful?!
@@johncanty2847 it really was. I used the app you recommended and with the tabbing it was spot on. Thanks.
hi is there an app for building regs exam ?
Thanks for the vid bro
John, have a few questions to ask you, have 18th next week. Flapping a bit, anyway I can email you ?
Regards
Brandon
Good video man. How did you get on on the 2391.
Hi Shane, passed the 2391-52 haven’t got round to doing a video yet but will get one done when I get a chance 👍🏼
Hi mate, there is two iet wiring regs apps one that is free and one that is now £5.99, did you try the free one and the paid one to see the difference? just seeing if i can get away with using the free one but won’t bother if it’s no good
Hello mate, personally I would pay the £5.99 as it is really useful.
Think its time to do my 18th. Been bluffing it with the 15th for years.
I think so! A lot has changed so it’s probably worth doing the 3 day course.
Hi thanks for the information. Do you recommend to spend online course (6 months access) for £350 including book, online exam from home, printed certificate etc? I am trying to save money, so i prefer not to spend if it is not essential. Thanks.
Hi mate, personally for £350 I would rather go to a local college and do the 3 day course to complete it all. If not then do what I did and buy the book, read through it and purchase the app and practice over 2/3weeks then book the exam only somewhere 👍🏼
@@johncanty2847hi mate, the same what I was thinking about,to purchase the book and practice,my question is did you take the exam online?if so what is the recommended site and if not any recommended center and is there any kinda practical assessment required?thanks so much
Im gonna be booking 2391-52 soon so any videos with tips would be great 🏴👍
It’s in the pipeline mate should hopefully get something out within the next couple of weeks 👍🏼
Hello mate, did u book 2391-52 and how did it go?
Tips For inspection and testing
anyone found that app?
how to prepare and book a test for myself?
Good tips, I didn't think you were aloud to write in the book before the exam? Can't find the same app, just a quiz, android though, you on I phone maybe?
Hi, yes I’m on Apple devices, I’ve pinned the link to it if at the top. Not sure about the writing in the book, the examiners didn’t seem to have an issue with it.
Hi so are you saying that all the 500 or so questions on the app you will get 60 of them in the exam? So if I used the app and can pass on there I can just take the exam? :)
it is advisable to achieve 80 percent in the mocks before you go for the real exam
Is that app better than the 18th edition wiring exam Q&A ?
I only purchased this app and it was more than helpful so can only speak for this one personally 👍🏼
How can I apply for the exam?
how to book for only exam?... thanks for valuable information
I booked mine at my local electrical college, so have a search for local or call around and see if they do exam only
Hi bro. I Am new to UK. I am an Electrical Engineer studied in India and have experience in Dubai. What course should i do get job in UK.
Don't open a corner shop for easier money much quicker 😂😂
Volt drop calculation is actually shown on pg.488
Of course but during an exam it would be easier to flick to front or back page to find the formula
@@johncanty2847 are we allowed to write down all the formulae at the notes page??
@@mymyohmygodyou're actually not, but if he got away with it then sweet init lol
You are allowed to note the formula but not any examples@@GRAVEAUDIO
Please can you share app
I’ve pinned the link to it 👍🏼
Can you show ur post it notes labels pls
I labelled it as per order of the book:
1. Scope, Object & Fundamentals
2. Definitions
3. General Characteristics
4. Protection for Safety
5. Selection & Erection of Equipment
6. Inspection and Testing
7. Special Installations or Locations
Appendices
Hope this helps
@@johncanty2847 ty for that mate using the app you said to study the book for my exam. Going well, up until i hit part 4 was alittle tricky but ill get there
@@OfficialUlsaN no problem mate. Just keep doing the practice exams and going through the book. You’ll be fine 👍🏼
I've got this exam coming up but my lecturer told us specifically that you are not allowed to bring in BS7671 If you have written ink on it, so post-it notes are fine but we can't mark the book whatsoever so remember that if you are going to take the exam
Sparky ninja did video on this. You can have some notes. Don't think you'd be allowed what he has there with that formula though
Are you allowed to write in the book?
Nope but you can get away with some. But it depends on examiner.
i was told your not allowed to write in the book because they look through it and will take it off you and give you a clean one for the assessment
Hi, I had the writing in mine and the examiners never mentioned anything. I’m not 100% on the ruling I’m just going by my exam.
@@johncanty2847 no worries, i passed it either way haha cheers
What's the name of the app called mate
IET wiring regulations 18th. Its on the APP store not sure about android
Is there anyway that you could share the app on there or get a picture of it
@@killerg43211 post your email here mate ill send you a screenshot then delete the comment
For ANDRIOD Users ITS A YELLOW BOXED LOGO THE NAME IS
"IET Wiring Regulations Lite "
By "Web rich Software "
@@mbk1251 thank you mate
how can i book my city guild exam independently, how did u do it?
I went through my local college and they advised that only some places do the exam only
Hi John could you please let me know 18th wiring regulations exam centre address / phone number in London .
Do not purchase this App... It's a waste of money n time... Just check the old papers it will be enough.
This App is not required.
DON’T write out formulas. If you see the C&G permitted notes for this exam it clearly states you are NOT allowed to write personal notes or formulas. If you do C&G have the rights to ban you from sitting any of there exams in the future for cheating. Just understand the risk of following his advice, even this video is all the evidence C&G need to take action.
18th edition book is brown. Glad you passed.
