The 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (BS7671:2018) replace the 17th Edition on 2nd July 2018.
The 17th Edition Wiring Regulations were launched in 2008 and while there have been a few amendments, not much has changed since then – until now.
On the 2nd July 2018 the 18th Edition will be officially published; a significant overhaul of electrical wiring standards and best practice.
BS7671:2018 will apply to new installations from 1st January 2019.
The latest changes will mean that electricians currently working will be expected to update their qualifications to the new edition by next year.
Many will want to do this as soon as possible.
Why not do the 18th Edition course now so you’re ahead of the curve?
Those qualifying for the first time will study the 18th edition (IET 18) from 2nd July 2018.
