Code of Practice for In-service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment 4th Edition (4th Edt) (Electrical Regulations) Paperback – Illustrated, 7 Nov. 2012

The binder on mine is holding up really well.Well printed, well set out. A must have for PAT testers, I guess.Why 4 stars not 5? The price, of course. The IET have got you over a barrel and can charge whatever they want. I suppose they've sat around a table and decided that this is the absolute maximum they can charge without most people, most of the time, realising they're greedy, money grabbing sods, taking what they can from hard working people trying to do the right thing.

Definitely need to get this book if your thinking of doing the C&G Pat Testing course.... everything you need to know is in this book for the exams

The code of practice is very informative and well laid out. It is sectioned for quick reference, provided in paperback form and contains colour diagrams, sketch drawings and material. A very good point of reference fo those withing to undertake testing or wishing to catch up with the latest changes brought in at the end of 2012 in revision 4.Like all these required official sources of reference it is expensive for what it costs to produce.

Expensive for what it is but very informative and covers the subject fully.A a lot of verbiage to plough through. Not very well laid out and a lot of references taking you backwards and forwards. Used as an open book in the PAT testing City and Guilds Part 2 Exam so a lot of thumbing backwards and forwards to find the information. Good idea to mark the chapters with tags to speed up the searching. If you are new to this PASS do a good book on the subject for £20.00 that is an easier read and supports this edition. I got both and found it useful to have the two.

Very good but now issue 5 out

Covers all the stuff you need to know for the PAT test course and exams. Essential but very expensive for what it is though. Unlike other reviews mine hasn't fallen to pieces yet despite moderate use. Perhaps they have improved the quality of the binding since those earlier reviews.

this CoP is the updated rev 4 edition, major changes to toughts and processes for testers. Puts more onus on the duty holder/end user to check the equipment instead of relying on the tester once a year and forgetting the equipment till next time around.if your a tester this is a must have.

Good for stater electricians
