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.

I have a scanned copy of mine, for them moment when you know there is a reg about if in the book but you just cant find it. Searching for all cases of 'local' isolation and other things does come in handy.
NO I am not going to send it out to anyone, so please don't ask..... unless you give everyone on this forum £6969.69 and a half pence

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!

Would be useful if there was a downloadable version for the tablet. would be alot easier if you need to look something up while doing the old testing

You get all the GNs, BGB and OSG in electronic format from the IET site

Beat me to it.

Ive got digital version from them with free updates.

Slower than proper regs when you know what page you want though

Do you get all updates free while it is 17th edition?

Yeah, you get updates on it as long as its 17th I think

That's not too bad then, just the initial expense which is a ball ache, plus the fact the scams expect you to have a hard copy of certain things to join them.

 

[shanky887614]

They want a hard copy?

 

[Plonker 3]

Yeah, that seems to be the consensus on here, that's why people say it's worthless buying even the cheap,versions on fleabag and the likes.

I don't even know where my hard copy of the BGB or the GN's are any more, nor my OSG, I could find them IF I had to, but when my visit comes, it will be the electronic versions he will be shown, if he does not like it then he will be getting it with both barrels as will the hierarchy.

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.....!

So your saying that if you pay the IET £300+ for the digital version then you get failed for not having hard copies?

 

[Marvo]

Yeah, it doesn't make sense to me either. If you have a reference copy, as long as it's verifiable as an original and official version it still meets the criteria regardless of the format it's in.

I'll let you know how I get on, I will NOT be showing paper copies of any documents any more.
Too much like hard work!
