IET Electrician’s Guide To The Building Regulations

[SnapCracklePop]

I’ve recently purchased this book from eBay (possibly the first mistake) I’ve noticed that it doesn’t have the hologram sticker like my other books? Have I bought a fake ?

kind of hard to tell from here i am afraid.

My 17th edition EG2TBR doesn't have a hologram either, pretty sure it's not a fake

Or you also have a fake ?

Got mine from wiring regulations.net and it does have the hologram, I think only certain publications carry it

Could always download a copy of the building regs from the government website FOC

Just checked mine, it came from the IET web shop which you’d like to think guarantees it’s genuine! No hologram, though the BBB, OSG and GN3 bought at the same time do have one.

As a guess I’d say it doesn’t get one because it isn’t part of BS7671, nor does it provide in-depth explanations of it like the OSG or GN’s do.

Maybe the ones with holograms are fake then ?
