Amendment 3:2024 to BS 7671:2018 – draft for public consultation.
From 8 May to 5 June 2024, IET and BSI are calling for comments on an amendment to the IET Wiring Regulations.
The amendment follows a bulletin from BEAMA which aimed to clarify the differences between connections for unidirectional and bidirectional RCDs and circuit-breakers.
The amendment is due to be published mid 2024, where it will be free to view on both the IET’s and BSI’s websites.
Comments on the DPC can be submitted through BSI’s Standards Development portal: by 5 June 2024 at 5pm.
