CEF TechTalks are back – with a focus on renewables and regulations

CEF is bringing its CPD accredited TechTalk events to even more venues due to customer demand. The award-winning distributor has announced additional dates and locations for these free events which focus on all things renewable.

EV, PV, wiring regulations and much more

Held in partnership with the IET, the new CEF TechTalks include a technical seminar presented by CEF’s Head of Technical Solutions, Darren Staniforth, supported by Dave Austin, Technical Presenter of the Learning Lounge. The IET will also be on hand to answer questions directly about proposed changes to regulations.

There is also a mini trade show with exhibitors demonstrating the latest products and innovations from brands including Schneider, Electrium, Rointe, Rolec, Scolmore and Aico.

Focus on renewables

This new series of TechTalks will help electricians and contractors get up to speed with the proposed changes to Electric Vehicle Charging Installations and Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Power Supply Systems.

TechTalks presenter Darren Staniforth says: “I see it as my job to share the golden nuggets of information that our electricians and contractors need to stay compliant and safe, and to help them provide a great service to their customers, just like we do at CEF.”
