IET announces new amendment to BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations)

Hi all


Just read about this in the latest edition of Wiring Matters Magazine and thought it may be of interest!

    "So they cannot be installed and on an EICR they would be a non compliance so would require recording and coding"

    So let me get this right, I have to remove this wonderful safety device which protects me when I am using my Flymo because its dangerous. (because the wiring regs say so)




    For an existing installation (e.g. my 15th Edn at home) should it be coded at all? If so, it could not be worse than C3 because there is no danger. Whether the upstream soft cable < 50 mm deep is non-compliant is irrelevant to this question.


    I still think that the real question is whether all work should be compliant.
