Supporting Cables and Cable Management Systems – The change between 17th and 18th editions of BS 7671: Requirements for Electrical Installations.

FIA members may remember the presentation made at the FIA Summer Seminar and Networking Event in 2015 by Rob Cardigan in which he drew attention to the content of the 3rd Amendment of the 17th Edition of BS 7671 and its interpretation. We are now faced with revised text within 18th Edition of BS 7671, which again requires careful interpretation in order to assure compliance.

This White Paper seeks to clarify the situation, provide advice to members and is applicable to balanced as well as optical fibre cables.
