Product Description
Product Description
The IEE Wiring Regulations (BS 7671) are the national standard to which all domestic and industrial wiring must conform. A new edition of the "Wiring Regulations" - the 17th Edition - will be published in January 2008.The 17th Edition reflects significant changes to both the technical content and structure of the book. Key changes in the volume include: a change allowing a socket outlet in bathrooms (if 3ms from the edge of a bath or shower and rcd protected); extension of the Regulations to cover new special locations': exhibition shows, photovoltaic (pv) power supply systems, floor and heating systems, marinas and fairgrounds and amusements parks; and, re-numbering and re-structuring of chapters to align with international standards. "The Regulations" move from being the 16th to the 17th edition - a major shift in name and perception of its contents. The 16th edition has been in place since 1991.
From the Publisher
Ensure that your electrical installations conform to the latest safety guidelines from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) as codified in BS 7671, Requirements for Electrical Installations.
This is especially important as the Building Regulations Part P Electrical Safety now applies to all fixed electrical installations in dwellings.
BS 7671 applies to the design, erection and verification of electrical installations, also additions and alterations to existing installations. Existing installations that have been installed in accordance with earlier editions of the Regulations may not comply with this edition in every respect. This does not necessarily mean that they are unsafe for continued use or require upgrading.
BS 7671:2008 includes changes necessary to maintain technical alignment with CENELEC harmonization documents.
BS 7671:2008 Requirements for Electrical Installations comes into effect on 1st July 2008.
Installations designed after 30th June 2008 are to comply with BS 7671:2008.

A must for all electricians and especially for those who are taking the 17th edition exhams
Make sure you have this weeks before you take the exham I got this 2 days before and I failed through lack of studying the format etc

I trawled the internet but could NOT find a better price,anywhere. This is why I purchased from Amazon.
I already know that Amazon are a Company to be trusted so all things being equal I went ahead and made my purchase.
Anybody looking for this book,dont bother looking elsewhere,you are only wasting your time

Put simply, this book is the most compulsive reading matter I`ve come across since, erm ... The 16th Edition - & that was a right Corker.
The BSi & IET have surely outdone themselves with this Big Bulging Sexy book of regs, offering far more methods of protection to Persons & Livestock than ever dared before.
If I were to die tomorrow through fault of a missing equipotential bond, it certainly wouldnt be due to misinterpretation of this Book which takes safety to almost unparalled levels.
