Code Books and Exam Adjustments

As of October 1st, 2022, the Industry Training Authority’s (ITA) Standard Level Exams (SLEs) for Harmonized Plumber Levels 2 and 3 have been adjusted to reflect both the 2015 and 2020 versions of the National Plumbing Code Book.

As mentioned on Technical Safety BC’s (TSBC) website, as of October 1st, 2022, the recognized code book for the Harmonized Gas Fitting trade is the B149.1:20 (Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code) and the B149.2:20 (Propane Storage and Handling Code). The Technical Safety BC’s Acts and Regulations have also been adjusted to match the requirements of the 2020th edition of the previously-mentioned code books.

Lastly, the ITA has added to their Sprinkler Fitter page a list of useful acronyms used in the SLE. Stay tuned for a similar list on the Plumber trade’s page.
