I've found these books really helpfull, a mate recomended them, nothing in them that's not in the others but they're a really handy size, the test one fits nicely into my MFT case, at 12 quid as well for both ... bargain.

Hi
-newnes electrical pocket book. (Packed with info)
-Guide to the seventeenth edition by Darrel Locke. (Does what it says, very useful sometimes)
-Electricians guide to the building regulations. (domestic)
-On site guide (good as a quick reference point)
-BS7671 17th edition. (essential, obviously)

The guidance notes are all very useful too, you don't have to buy them all but may want to get a couple you feel are relevant to the particular type of work you'll be doing.
