18th Edition & Special Locations
About
In the first half, Gary will explain how and why BS 7671 is updated, before moving on to cover the main changes between the 17th and the 18th edition. He’ll be focusing on earthing and bonding, AFDDS, and the different types of RCDs, ending with the new requirements for testing RCDs and for insulation resistance, He’ll also share the updates made to the model forms.
In the second half, Gary will cover the main changes that affect special installations and locations covered in Part 7 of BS 7671. While the numbering structure and content is virtually the same, a few bits have been added and some bits have been retired; so be sure to stick around to see what is and what is not coming in the next edition of BS 7671!
