The new 17th Edition of the Requirements for Electrical Installations is now available to purchase from your normal sources such as AmazonUK, the price, well that is £65, although you can get secondhand cheaper.
I had to admit to having a smile on my face when reading the reviews at Amazon though. Especially in how it can increase your pulling power. Strange though it may seem, it could make sure that if you read and obey you will have liberty and freedom to chase the girls (or boys). Failure to comply could well result in a manslaughter charge and if found guilty (remembering you have to prove your innocence) could face a lengthy prison sentence. To reiterate, The Electricity At Work Regulations, regulation 29 is a clever bit of law that puts the onus on you to prove you took all reasonable steps. In order prove you took reasonable steps then it would be in your defence that your work complied with that contained in the Red Book or 17th Edition Wiring Regulations BS7671:2008. £65 or 10 years in prison, your choice.
