Essential for electrical installers and installation designers, the IEE Wiring Regulations (BS 7671) have been completely restructured and updated for the first time in over a decade: this 17th Edition of the IEE Wiring Regulations (BS 7671: 2008) will come into effect in June 2008. Guide to the Wiring Regulations is an authoritative and accessible guide to the 17th Edition, illustrating the changes and providing real solutions to the problems that can often occur with practical interpretation.

Customer Reviews
I found both the text and in particular the illustrations, very useful in resolving different interpretations surrounding earthing and bonding issues.
There is also a very useful short section on harmonic assessment.
I have no hesitation in thoroughly recommeding the book to both practising electricians and electrical circuit designers.
Despite the book demonstrates many changes in the 17th edition; it doesn't reference to the latest lightning protection BS EN 62305:2006 which is currently running in parallel with the BS 6651:1999 and will supersede this standard on 31/08/08. The book mentions that SPDs are not required in the UK this should be established once the relevant risk assessment has been tasked.
On the whole, I do believe it is a worthwhile book to invest in.
