Old copies of BS7671?...

HappyHippyDad · Jan 23, 2019

I'm after some old copies of BS7671. No real reason, I just like collecting them.

I'm just wondering if anyone can find any on the net, or if anyone fancies selling them?

The earliest I have is BS7671 : 2001 incorporating Amd 1 and 2 (2004) (Brown cover). There seems to be lots of these available but then absolutely nothing before that, why is this?

Before anyone posts up the First ed on line, I have already found that

Since I qualified last March, I’ve also been looking for old copies of the regs. Ironically though, before I qualified or even thought about becoming an electrician I was at an indoor boot sale in January 2018 and there was a guy there selling old copies of the regs going back to the 40’s & 50’s, he’d found them in his late fathers house after he had passed away. He only wanted £50 for a large box full of them.

@happyhippydad Take a look at this online book store, I got used copies of both the 15th & 16th edition wiring regs, still looking for the imperial 14th edition & the updated metric 14th edition though.
