Where can I download the 17th edition regs from?

[JGG]

Does anyone know where I can download the 17th edition from? Also a website which provides past 17th edition test papers on would be helpful. Thanks.

think, like the rest of us, you going to have to buy the brb. look on ebay, going cheap coz. amendment is due soon.

There are copwrite issues with such practice.
Any website that allows such would soon be in trouble.
You can purchase an online version from the IET at their website.
It was on a 14 day trial a little while back, may still be ?

Spin - this 14 day trial - if you dont like it can you send it back and ignore it like? But seriously there were some cheap on Amazon a while back.

I'd also like a copy just for interest sake so I don't feel like a DIY'er when you guys start quoting the UK rules and regs. If anyone comes across a download link or a torrent please PM me.

Laws regarding copyrights and the distribution of material vary from place to place. It probably would be illegal to host this in the UK or the USA but not in the Netherlands or Spain for example.

 

[Burnt Fingers]

I think you shoudl just buy one, then guard it with your life, and moan endlessly about the cost and content, like I do.

 

[Marvo]

You're probably right. It's not the price of the regs on EBay, it's the shipping that's the killer.

postage on brb should only be under £5

 

[mattmoo1974]

Buy it your going to use it all the time any ways or libary

I would rarely use it, only for general interest.

I am registered but don't live in the UK so we don't work to your 17th Ed. Just wanted a copy for interest really, not for general use.

 

[Andyfirth]

If you know about torrents, I have seen people posting scanned copies for reference. They are out there if you search, but you will be in breach of copyright law.

I found a 'web version' of the 17th edition regs and an OSG, feel free to pm me for details.

 

[Burnt Fingers]

I only noticed today it had changed colour. Do I need to requalify again? lol

 

[Cyberprog]

I picked up at copy of the BRB and the On-Site guide, brand new, for £30ish on eBlag. BRB was still in the shrink wrap.

 

[netblindpaul]

Cyber, that would be because the BGB is now out and after 31/1/11 the brb & associated OSG will be obsolete!

 

[Cyberprog]

Yep, but this was before I read the thread about 2391 and intended to do the course this month
Meh, £30 ain't that bad for them and it'll always be handy to read till I work out when to do 17th in the new year...

first 2.
Also the first 2 have different copies 2008 and 2011. im guessing the latest one.If someone would look up Eason & Son Bookstore (irish bookstore)and enter 17th edition iee wiring regulations in their search engine

Hi monosel123, welcome to the forum.

Thanks for sharing the link, I'm sure your intentions were good but unfortunately it's a copyright violation so I've had to remove it.

 

[tazz]

When you are assessed, for you Part P etc.....the first thing you will be asked....is to show you 17th edition section, copies or printouts are instant failure.....!

Even if you could download it (and assuming you want it with you in the van) you are going to have to print it all off, chuck it in a binder of some sort - 1 to 2 hours faffing about...

...you may as well go out and work for 2 hours to pay for the book!
