You should have the latest versions of all literature that you need to reference. No point in having outdated copies.

No their not going backwards there are GN1-8 each based on different topic.

It was the IEE before it amalgamated with the IIEE to form the IET
 
If you are considering joining a scheme, you should call them and get the pack of info they will send out. This WILL detail their expectations for an assessment, and within this you will need original copies of the documentation, the only exception I believe is you can download and print the Part P building reg itself.

Yeah cheers, i thought the free down load electricity at work regs 1989 was ok also?
 
All the guidance notes are useful documents to reference.
As far as I know the self certification schemes do not require you to have any of the guidance notes, however Guidance note 3 is the one that is most often needed.
Guidance note 3 current edition is to BS7671 2008 incorporating amendment 1 2011.

ELECSA Require
Latest edition of regs BS7671 2008 amendment No 1 2012 by the way Amendemnt no 2 is out but that is available as download
Latest part P document
Memorandum of guidance on elecy at work regs
Latest edition of On- Site Guide

Guidance notes not required but as above GN3 is probably the 1 I would get if only getting 1 of the 8 available especially if you wish to carry out any EICRs I would say its essential reading

Not sure on other scams

Cheers mr lee, big fan by the way.
Is this latest part pis doc. http://www.niceic.com/Uploads/File8954.pdf?
 
For the NICEIC requirements for books they give you options: GN1 or the ESC essential guide, GN1 is cheaper and GN3 or NICEIC inspection, testing and certification, the second one is much cheaper.

The other alternative is to join a scheme that does not require these books, though you will probably want to buy them anyway.

Like it or not, buying updates for your technical library, is one of those overheads you need to build into your business plan.

Again you miss my point, but hay whats new!. its the old 2+2 again.
Bruce pointed out there has been a recent update only available on down load
Point was, im not going to buy books, not to find there has just been new releases or there is just about to be new releases.
Could some 1 please clarify if its not to much trouble! if there is or has been any new releases recently or if its too much trouble or another stupid question, lets continue to go round the houses.
 
BS7671 amendment 1 came out 2011, amendment 2 in 2013 (amendment 2 is only available on free download so does not need a new book) next amendment who knows but likely 2015.

Electricians guide to the building regulations new version due to be released today, but may not yet be available.

This is something that you could have researched yourself and then you would have the satisfaction of achievement.

Each of these books is about £25-30 bar BS7671 at £70.

You are a star. Thank you so much. Working as a police officer changing career i don't get a lot of spare time. I dont know what you do in your spare time but i personally won't get much satisfaction out of researching books trust me! it is a lot easier to ask people in the game, is it not mr Burns?

Matey, don't get me wrong, but I think I should train to join the Police in CID because I have a "nose" for posters who aren't telling the whole truth. Now you have been more honest about your situation, you will probably get a bit more help.


Now, if I was the criminal and you were questioning me, I bet you would get shirty if I were dishing out misleading answers.....
 
Working as a police officer changing career

Oh Yeah ?
with the 17th and 2391 ? asking these sorts of questions, interspersed with textspeak sometimes, and with numerous other spelling mistakes littered throughout.

Unless this is the standard calibre of the rozzers these days ?

I'll tell you something bonny lad .. even if this is only half true - which I doubt - it answers a lot of questions and tells me all I need to know about you.

Now go and try to wind somebody else up. (or stitch them up)

See you next Tuesday.
 
These amendments are a little confusing. Is there any reason why sometimes when they come out the books are not changed and other times the books are changed?? and when the books are not changed where do you get the down loads? where do you come across this kind of info to keep in the loop?

Mr Burns where are you again please- oh and by the way i phoned NICEIC today and they said they know nothing of new realease part p doc, but that is not to say you are incorrect of course.
