Well ive just paid me money for new set of books, £175... And I didnt bother getting the electricians guide to building regs or the new NAPIT code breakers... It would have been nice if considering there is not a massive amount of change they could have made the books cheaper...

Always a bother that!

I see the regs & OSG are in stock, but the various guidance notes are due in a couple of months time.

I think I will be buying mine in a couple of months...once I have saved up!

Oh really, I bought direct from napit, didnt say there was an issue, got the regs, onsite guide, guidance notes 3 and guidance note 8... Wonder when they will arrive..

I am a member of the IET for my sins (which are many and varied) so I get something like 25% or so discount there. Do you get something similar as a NAPIT member?

I am also slightly confused as to why the 5x RCD test has not been dropped, what was the point of doing it all this time? seems bizarre and not something I had expected, it will again be a change that will catch people out as I am sure many who do not keep up with things so well will continue to do all the tests and record the highest of the 5x tests..

Yeah, I noticed that, I think it's a FUBAR, the only test required is 1x on ac and must trip <300ms.

I think they just can't be bothered to get it right.

And as you say, will cause confusion, with many not bothering to read the actual regs, and just follow the sheet!

Wiringregulations.net have decent discounts, with a bit more discount on a limited selection of bundles - eg. regs, osg & gn3 for £134.
