I’ve had a read through and saw some notable new items.

All new consumer units to be asbestos lined.

New special locations in sect 7 include “any room containing a dog”

All green and yellow sleeving to replaced by yellow and green. This is mandatory across all installations of any age.

Along with RCD, SPD, AFDD, all consumer units must now include a WTF and a FFS

All new work must be filmed and posted to YouTube.

Happy April, everyone.
 
Not forgetting that all plugs and sockets will no longer be considered male or female based on their physical properties.
all customers will be able to re identify the gender of them depending on how they want to be perceived.
 
After 12 noon, but this one probably better belongs in this thread:

 
Anyone got their copy yet?
Mine arrived today and has letters missing from pages ends of words not printed and all sorts of the usual mess ups and I've only been sat for a half hour or so thumbing through GN3!

Maybe that's why discounts are offered for early purchases 😄

Thought it was cheap!
No wonder, they have only used half the ink and no spelling checked so they saved on proof readers too!😁

Mine landed on Wednesday but when I ordered it at Elex Bolton having a chat with one of the IET guy's he admitted that there were some errors in the new books

It does make me wonder what we are paying them for!
With all that time drinking tea and eating biscuits they could at least flick through what they have written and check it before publishing!😄
