Product Description
Product Description
Brian Scaddan's guides to the IEE Wiring Regulations have established themselves as an industry standard. This new edition will be an essential reference for all contractors, technicians and other professionals, as well as newcomers to the industry, who need to ensure their work complies with the latest version of the Wiring Regulations.
Used alongside the regulations themselves, this book is the key to safe and efficient electrical installation. The book is also a concise and popular text for the City & Guilds 2381 syllabus. The new edition is updated throughout to match the 2004 version of BS 7671:2001 (incorporating Amendments 1:2002 & 2:2004), and also features extended coverage of Special Locations (such as bathrooms, construction sites and computer / data type installations). There are common misconceptions in the application of the Wiring Regulations in these areas with regard to bonding, voltages, disconnection times and sizes of earthing conductors. Brian Scaddan clarifies the requirements, and outlines the correct procedures to follow (and those to avoid!). Problems are provided, for use as 'self-check' exercises or college assignments.
Brian Scaddan is the Chief Examiner for the City & Guilds 2391 vocational award. He has 30 years' experience in Further Education, and is now Director of Brian Scaddan Associates, Engineering Training Consultants.
* New edition covers additional essential information on Special Locations, clarifying common misconception in the application of Wiring Regulations in these areas
* Fully in line with the 2004 version of BS 7671:2001 (incorporating Amendments 1:2002 & 2:2004), and matched to the City & Guilds 2381 Vocational award

Good all round,

This review is from: 16th Edition IEE Wiring Regulations: Explained & Illustrated (Paperback)
I bought this book to go with the 2391 course and I found it a good study aid. It covers inspection and testing techniques, circuit design, earthing and a lot more. If you just want it for 2391 then I would recommend you get the inspection, testing and certification book (green and blue writing on the front cover)which is also another one of Brians great reads.

16 IEE Wiring Regulations - Explained and Illustated,
By pip (Liverpool, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 16th Edition IEE Wiring Regulations: Explained & Illustrated (Paperback)
My background is in electronics, I purchased this book to get a better understanding of electrical installation. I feel that this is a good book in many areas, but it lets itself down due to the fact that it doesn't contain alot of the tables referred to in the book, Table 54C, 41B1,B2 etc. Also, I've notice that a number of the answers to the set problems are wrong. The book also suffers from not explaining where it comes up with the values it uses in some of the the worked through examples. The above a part, quite an interesting read!
