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 do the new SRCDs, one of the changes is that they will have Type A Double Pole RCD protection, instead of Type AC.


    But as pointed out by the manufacturer that socket can be used for mowing the lawn rather than just charging a car, so it’s just a bog standard multipurpose outdoor socket.


    So does it have to have an Type A DP RCD upfront of its circuit?
