18TH EDITION CORRIGENDUM

John Peckham

I see that the IET issued a press release on a forthcoming Corrigendum to the 18th Edition to be found here:

. 

Sounds interesting.

    Is this a way to introduce a 3rd amendment to the regs, without actually calling it an amendment?

    In short no. A corrigendum is used to correct errors and misunderstandings made in the current edition of the standard.

      is correct.

    Corrigenda are used to address errors inadvertently introduced during drafting or production of a standard that could lead to incorrect or unsafe application of the standard.

    So, spelling and punctuation mistakes won't usually be corrected in a Corrigendum, but wait until the next Amendment or Edition. Technical issues that require substantial changes would usually be an Amendment.
