Update on the old forum archive

Lisa Miles
Hi all


I have some news regarding the archive of the old posts in the previous forum (powered by Fusetalk)


The Fusetalk software will finally go offline permanently by the end of January 2020 meaning that it will no longer be available or searchable. As we’ve said previously the software is no longer supported and now poses a serious cybersecurity concern.


There will be a short length of time where discussions within the old forum will not be available while an archive is being prepared.  We suggest if there are any discussions you wish to keep for reference, that you save a copy of it before the end of January.


It has also been requested that we only archive the conversations posted on the old forum since the release of the 18th Edition Wiring regs (i.e. from July/August 2018) so that out-of-date regs information is not made available. So again, if there are any past conversations that you wish to keep a copy of then we’d recommend that you do so before the end of January.


Any questions please ask or email us at community-online@theiet.org

    +1 for the objections to that request. Many of the discussions are based not so much on the wording of specific regulations but on the underlying principles - and those discussions don't get repeated just because a new Ed of the regs is published. Cutting off from the start of the 18th would inevitably mean the loss of still useful information.
