IET Wiring Regulations: Explained and Illustrated

It’s an amazing book to have. Brilliant!

Full of the information that I need to know

A decent guide on the basics of the regulations that helps explain some of what the code is saying, so your eyes don’t pop out trying to figure what the code means. Wish it explained more of the stuff we need every day, like how to figure breaker sizing in easy math but it does the best in a small space.

This is a must for anyone studying for the 18th edition course. It is quite small but I have found it very helpful. The question and answer section is especially helpful.

This book is not really assistance with current working practices within the electrical industry, it covers the 18th Edition in view of passing an assessment to navigate the regulations. An example, page 43 there is a very simple statement saying that the IET recommends fitting Arc Fault Detection Devices, but no explanation of how they work or why they are a good idea. There is also a lot of theory behind fuse links and the mathematically justification of where they are used, they are not installed generally in most modern installs. The explanations on cable factors using 3036 fuses, why? They are not used by electricians as they are outdated and also do not meet the regulations requirements for RCD protection. Disappointed really that there is no supporting book from a member of the IET that reflects what the industry is doing.

Easy to understand breakdown of all the 18th edition additions and everything BS7671. Pocketable guide I keep with me on the go.

Great product very informative with excellent tests within. Easy to follow and very helpful

Small book but covers just about everything an electrician needs for reference. Very important for apprentices.

Some of the pages are not glued to the spine. Consequently, they come off are soon as you flick through the pages.
