ECA Members: have your say on Amendment 4 to the current BS 7671:2018 Wiring Regulations, which will open as a Draft for Public Comment (DPC) on 7 August 2024.

AMD4 will incorporate changes to harmonised standards at European level which the UK has to adopt within a certain time period.

Amendment 4 is expected to be published in 2026, until that time electrical installers need to have a copy of Amendment 2 (2022) - the ‘brown book’ and Amendment 3 (2024) (free PDF bolt-on) to be up to date.

The IET and BSI jointly manage JPEL64, the committee responsible for the Wiring Regulations (BS 7671), of which ECA is a key member. Our industry-leading Technical Team is ready to support ECA Members with these changes via the ECA Member website and Technical Helpline.
