Guidance Note 1: Selection & Erection contains clear guidance on how to apply the relevant sections of BS 7671. A fundamental guide for specifiers, installers and those testing installations, the expected updates in Amendment 3 greatly impact on day-to-day tasks.


The main changes to BS 7671 that impact Guidance Note 1 include information on:




consumer units (to come into effect January 2016);
wiring in escape routes;
