Summary: You know you want it
Comment: I am about to order this. After reading the reviews I can't wait to get my hands on this and read it cover to cover to get all 17th,ed and ready for my next NICEIC inspection. It will be great, more regs, more questions, more trying to explain to customers. I may opt (have to) to go on a course aswell which is excellent as I was wondering where to go on holiday this year. Roll on the ammendments. There may even be a prequel and some retro bonding moments to come.

Summary: 17th Edition, Great if you like poor workmanship and RCDs everywhere to cover poor workmanship!!
Comment: Well, after years of is the 16th overkill or under, we all had our issues with the 16th as practical installers. but my god the 17th. have done the guilds, the tutor hated it, every electrician I know and have met hate the book. New numbering to allign with the EU, wow great friggin idea that was. Oh by the way havn't the IET just issued an ammendment showing how stupid they were and highlighting how many mistakes are in this version. I would wait until they industry sees sense and makes the first published ammendemnt. £65 for a book with mistakes, bloody cheek!
beside this version is great if you a piss poor electrician and like using RCDs everywhere. what ever happend to correctly selecting, installing, inspecting and testing a circuit with good workmanship and materials so that persons, property and livestock etc are protected without the need for these 1666 ohms cheat devices which can and do seize up anyway if not maintained! (pushing the button after two years doesn't make a device relaibel, its under fault that counts!) Might as well use bloody nails. TWO WORDS COWBOYS CHARTER!!

Summary: Book for the boys
Comment: A book that is simply not written to be understood. A book that can only really be read if purchased with other guides. A book written by persons that have no idea about this industry. A black cable can now be live, existing blue cables now may be live but new blue ones will be neutrals. Persons will die because of these Regs. Written by so called experts that do not care how much it all costs. Let's put RCDs or RCBOs on everything. Why buy it, because you have to.

Summary: "Bob the fish!".........
Comment: ........What a guy! Try reading the description of the book before buying!
....My missus loves it now i'm "Mr Competant"!
Its just like the last edition, but red &......safety is beefed up.
It'd probably sell better as an audio C.D version, as a SLEEPING aid!
Maybe that'd get the price down to a reasonable cost.
Lets hope its a while before the next one, eh?

The IEE Wiring Regulations (BS 7671) are the national standard to which all domestic and industrial wiring must conform. A new edition of the "Wiring Regulations" - the 17th Edition - will be published in January 2008.The 17th Edition reflects significant changes to both the technical content and structure of the book. Key changes in the volume include: a change allowing a socket outlet in bathrooms (if 3ms from the edge of a bath or shower and rcd protected); extension of the Regulations to cover new special locations': exhibition shows, photovoltaic (pv) power supply systems, floor and heating systems, marinas and fairgrounds and amusements parks; and, re-numbering and re-structuring of chapters to align with international standards. "The Regulations" move from being the 16th to the 17th edition - a major shift in name and perception of its contents. The 16th edition has been in place since 1991.
