New Member, Looking for professional help regarding GN3 and On-site guide.

[Jack Brown]

Good Morning all,

I am a new member, initially drawn to the forums by the technical help given by you guys and any potential help I may be able to offer.

I am currently doing my AM2, (After 8 years in the industry) As I believe that I need all my papers up to date for the way the industry is going. I am currently working as an electrical site manager and have been revising during the day for the exam at the end of the AM2 (C&G 2382) I believe ?

Getting to the point I cannot seem to reference the regulation numbers from the onsite guide & GN3 to any other document I.e. BS7671. For example

Page 74 of the onsite guide shows (522.6.102) 'In domestic or similar installations....' Where can I reference this number to as (Part 5, Chapter 2, Section 2, reg 6 of BS7671) does not relate to that of the on site guide...

I bet im being stupid but I cant see it for the life of me... Many thanks if your still with me.

if i recall, 522.6.102 refers to cables buried in walls < 50mm deep.

Are you looking at the corresponding up to date versions of the various guides? Just a thought

... and they contain errors!
See BS 7671 - IET Electrical - https://electrical.------.org/bs-7671/ for the latest corrections.

They are not the up to date revisions but they are of the same issue i.e. they are bth 17th Ed so should be able to cross-reference ?

Sorry which contains errors ?. And that link is very helpful, giving a breakdown on the new amendments.

If you're looking at the 17th versions of the guides they may be older ones with errors - the digital regs has the latest edition of the Brown book and OSG only for me to check.

They both reference 522.6.202, which is the one regarding cabling <50mm

But that's not on Page 74 of the OSG, but on page 34 in the 7th edition (17th edition AMD3) .

Are these printed guides, or PDF versions? Might be a dodgy version with poor OCR?
