This is where I am logged into but don't know if you will get access if the original link has been taken down

Thanks, but that just says login session has expired. I imagine someone has screwed with the web site and it will be fixed later. This is what the IET site says about the time scales:

Draft for Public Comment: Amendment 2 to BS 7671:2018 (IET Wiring Regulations 18th Edition)

The Draft for Public Comment for BS 7671:2018+A2:2022 is available from Monday, 21 September 2020 on the BSI website.

Amendment 2 contains proposed changes throughout BS 7671, including a new Part 8: Functional Requirements.

The DPC runs until 11 December 2020 for you to view the draft and submit your comments via the process outlined on BSI’s website. The JPEL/64 committee with then review all submitted comments, and Amendment 2 is expected to publish in Spring 2022.

It’s just a draft, there is no guarantee that AFDD’s will be made mandatory at all nor any other regulation changes that are proposed.

It was working last night, but barely - seems like they've taken it offline while they cool the steam powered server down...

The SparkyNinja webinar was worth watching - will be on youtube soon I'm sure. One of the points they made was that only allowing comments or viewing of the DPC this way is likely a breach of various disability leglislation. No doubt they are too worried about protecting their copyright so they can make as much as possible when they finally sell it.

Right I fired some disparaging feedback at BSI and we now have a new link

https://standardsdevelopment.bsigroup.com/Projects/9020-04654#/section

Apparently it has been split into 4 parts now due to some issues they were having and the comment date end is the 11th Dec

That link works (at least no '404 page not found') but no sign of how to access any of the documents!

Still, at least it is showing the 11th Dec now.

Based on the other recent DPCs, looks like when it's working there should be a red button that says 'read draft and comment'. Maybe the 4 comments they've had already put them off showing it to anyone else?!

In the meantime, you can comment on the critical "BS ISO 3065 Essential oil of Eucalyptus, Australian type"

Thank God that has finally come up for consultation! I was having sleepless nights wondering if I had missed the chance...

You need to login top right of the web page if you haven't got an account you need to register and then login to access the documents

Logged in correctly but still not getting it - they may be limiting it to x number of logged in users at once.

PDF would have been so much easier....

OK, now registered and logged in, but page looks the same!

 

[UNG]

Logged in and this is what I get

Read draft and comment gives you part one the other parts are accessed with the links above that

 

[pc1966]

I don't see anything like that. Have sent message to BSI about it, will see what comes out of this.

 

[Dartlec]

This is what I currently get while logged in - they are clearly still having issues serving the page to people who want to read it... (different number of comments too I notice)

I could see it last night, though it was too slow to actually use, so I gave up

 

[westward10]

I get the above but trying to view it on a smart device like a tablet is futile it just keeps freezing.

 

[loz2754]

Yup I've logged in to the site but can't get it to work. It's just stuck on table of contents. I'll try again later.
Thanks for the heads up.

Why the disagree?

 

[Mike Johnson]

How many of you think the difficulty of log in and not being able to comment is better and less time consuming for those that have to read them all, Oh cynical me.

Ah, a flat earther

Don't wander too far from your base you may fall off the edge.
