Relaxing the stance on RCD's....couple of new special locations....surge protection & EICR not all that bad IMO.
 
should be a bit wiser next week after the tec talks at the elex, if nothing else it fun to watch the guys put on the spot by disgruntled electricians when they get hold of the mic
 
RCD encourage cowboys to run a mock in the low value market by not fitting them unlike us pro sparks who follow the good book!! no wonder we lose jobs like fitting 3 extra sockets and a new light to joe bloggs mondeo brigade!
 
Where can we see/read them guys? Won't be able 2 make the elex show which is a pain coz im only 20 mins away aswell :(
 
Hi super_stuey,

Here is a link to where you can gat a look at the amendment.

IEE Wiring Regulations index - The IET
 
Should be pointed out that it is a DRAFT proposal for the 1st amendment which is on the site and there may be alterations between now and when it is finally published.
 
"New numbering system .... In order to accommodate future IEC changes it has been decided to have a 100 numbering system for UK regulations only. The means for example the current regulation 422.3.14 will become become 422.3.100 and regulation 422.3.6 will become 422.3.103 etc."

So 422.3.14 becomes 422.3.100 ... and 422.3.6 becomes 422.3.103? Er, lost me already.
 
what the?numbering system,are these people having a laugh,our rates need to go up as the skill in which it takes to relate to the brb has/will increase.

Dont forget, the regs need changing every couple of years or so to keep the BOG's pockets lined.

Therefore, there will always be pointless amendments.
 
So whens the final ammendment out? Do you just read up on the web whats what? Or is there another small book with the updates?
