The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) is calling on the electrical industry to have its say and influence the content of the 18th Edition of the IET Wiring Regulations (BS 7671), following the release of the Draft for Public Comment (DPC) for BS 7671:2018.
The DPC allows users of the IET Wiring Regulations to see the proposed content and put forward their views to JPEL/64, the decision-making committee behind BS 7671.
The DPC of BS 7671:2018 contains many completely revised and redrafted sections, chapters and regulations. An entirely new area, Part 8 - Section 801, is proposed, encompassing requirements for energy efficiency.
An overview of the proposed changes is included in the introduction to the DPC, which also provides a summary of some of the key changes and new content.
JPEL/64 will discuss all submitted comments over the following months and make final decisions before BS 7671:2018 is published, expected to be July 2018.
