Last few days/hours to comment on Amendment 2, BS7671 before the shutters close

Just a reminder the deadline for comments on the latest draft for  comment is fast approaching - this Friday the 11th in fact. (Though it is not clear if that is midday or midnight, so probably best to log in and out again before the end of Thursday..)


If you wish to comment and have not yet done so you need to create an account on the BSI website

Click on login/register on the RHS of the BSI welcome page  and  give them an email you can read without needing to change machine, as you need to click a verify link they send you.

Once logged in  search for "BS 7671:2018" oddly searching for BS 7671 without the space between BS and 7671:2018 does not find it...

There are 4 links as the thing is a bit of a monster. PDFs of each part can be downloaded for perusal, but to finally comment you need the on-screen viewer (the Read Draft and comment button)

This is not quick so allow plenty of time.

    Remember that in the UK the regs are non-statutory, and in other technical fields there are plenty of abandoned standards (some BS, some EN some ANSI) that no-one follows any more for one reason or another, because they were inadvertently locked to one way of doing things that is simply not used in practice.

     

    Don't forget rented homes in England are now required to conform with BS7671 (though no mention of the amendments in the current regulations).  If the regulations are updated, SPDs and AFDDs could become compulsory in rental properties.
