This authoritative, best-selling guide has been extensively updated with the new technical requirements of the IET Wiring Regulations (BS 7671: 2008) Amendment No. 1:2011, also known as the IET Wiring Regulations 17th Edition. With clear description, it provides a practical interpretation of the amended regulations effective January 2012 offers real solutions to the problems that can occur in practice. This revised edition features:





new material on hot topics such as electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), harmonics, surge protective devices, and new special locations including medical locations, and operative or maintenance gangways; highlights the changes that have been made in this latest Amendment and their impact in practice; examples of how to comply with the Wiring Regulations; fully-integrated colour including sixty brand new colour illustrations, twenty tables and new high-quality photographs.

This essential guide retains its handy format, ideal for practicing electricians, trainee electricians and apprentices to carry with them for quick reference. It is a valuable resource for all users of BS 7671 who want to understand the background to the Regulations; electrical engineers and technicians, installation and design engineers, consulting and building services engineers, also dedicated inspectors and testers.

Electrical Contractors' Association (ECA), ESCA House, London, UK The Electrical Contractors' Association (ECA) is the UK's leading trade association for contractors who design, install, inspect, test and maintain electrical and electronic equipment and services. In its capacity to work with regulatory bodies and government to lead on issues including safety, training, qualification and technological development, ECA is represented on the committees which regularly reviews and updates British Standards on electrical wiring regulations, used in the UK and many commonwealth countries. The ECA has partnered with Wiley on a number of successful books on key topics of interest to its membership.
