[QUOTE="kme, post: 297295, member: 113"] John. As a general rule, we have discussions (electrically) over TWO things in here, I think. 1. Interpretation of a particular reg. , and whether a certain practice is excluded or not. 2. The correctness and feasibility of procedures which are NOT included in the book, but which may still comply. As was said above - just because it isn`t there, doesn`t mean it isn`t right. The book isn`t meant to be an exhaustive pictorial guide on what can and cannot be done, I tend to think of it more as a "check valve" on inspiration - providing the facts required for ME to decide if the approach I want to take is compliant. Further - as regards "defence in court". Don`t forget, this was the year when a judge decided to completely ignore 7671, as it has no standing in law. So that defence may or may not work. Blindly following a step-by-step "how to" is no substitute for a working knowledge, which is a defence I`d be MUCH happier with, than just being able to say: "He has this particular book (even though it isn`t legal), AND he can read - so he MUST be ok then........ I`m not having a go. I`m just saying that, because lollipop circuits, or 16A mcb submains on rings aren`t shown, doesn`t make them non compliant. Site-specific influences will be the deciding factors, in every case. KME [/QUOTE]
