Abstract
The IEE Council has authorised the issue of thefirst set of amendments to the 14th edition of the IEE wiring regulations, which took effect as from the 1st March 1968. The amendments are occasioned mainly by the issue of new and revised British standards, and the main changes they introduce concern classes of excess-current protection, 250-V mineral-insulated cables, cable materials, butyl-rubber-insulated cables and glass-fibre-insulated flexible cords. The opportunity has also been taken to bring up to date a number of other references to British standards and codes of practice. The regulations with 1968 amendments have been approved by the UK Minister of Power and the Secretary of State for Scotland for their purposes, including those of the Electricity Supply Regulations, 1937, and the Buildings Standards (Scotland) Regulations, 1963-67. Copies of the 1968 amendments, which need to be read in conjunction with the text of the 14th edition (1966), may be obtained from the Secretary of the IEE; price 3s. post free.
