A 17th Edition of the Wiring Regulations (aka BS7671) is being published in January 2008 and will come into force in June. While the Wiring Regs are amended every few years, a completely new edition is much less frequent – the 16th edition was first published in 1991. As the Wiring Regs are a long and complicated publication, there will be a huge demand for books explaining what the requirements mean for actual working practice.

This book has for many years been the standard guide to the practical aspects of domestic electrical wiring. It has been brought fully up-to-date with the new Regs and covers the latest best practice

It is a vital reference not only for electricians and electrical students but also for other professionals whose work demands a knowledge of electrical installation such as domestic installers and architects.
