Like most companies, we send out the odd press release every now and again.
We had an interesting response to something that appeared in a well known trade magazine – the response basically accused us of trying to “scare monger” and “frighten” electricians.
Well, I know that Halloween happens every year, but we aren’t in the business of scaring anyone – lets get a couple of things straight shall we!
The IET has a thing called the EAS – stands for Electrotechnical Assessment Specification – in simple terms, it is a template for all of us that work in the electrical industry – and yes that includes me!
So why am I rattling on about the 17th edition again…..(yawn)……… well it seems as though there is some confusion as to when you have to have achieved the 17th edition – well according to a number of callers out there to some of the larger enrolment bodies and competent persons schemes, and I quote “You do not have to have the 17th edition….yet”…..
Well according to the IET and one of major enrolment bodies, they are saying and publishing articles called “the clock is ticking”………. and that compliance with the 17th edition is required by the end of 2010 or by the next assessment visit – and if there is still anyone out there that is still the doubting sceptic why not check out the IET web site……http://www.theiet.org/publishing/wiring-regulations/eas
