2008-03-23 A good book for the Basic/Intermediate Level Technician/Engineer

My first impressions of the book is that it is clear and concise on the information it provides to a reader. I do like the early chapter explaining how the BS7671 reads and develops with current regulations.

Despite the book demonstrates many changes in the 17th edition; it doesn't reference to the latest lightning protection BS EN 62305:2006 which is currently running in parallel with the BS 6651:1999 and will supersede this standard on 31/08/08. The book mentions that SPDs are not required in the UK this should be established once the relevant risk assessment has been tasked.

On the whole, I do believe it is a worthwhile book to invest in.
