18th Edition Exam Tips and Tricks 2021
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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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
