BS 7671:2018+A4:2026 Requirements for Electrical Installations was issued on 15th April 2026 and may be implemented immediately.
BS 7671:2018+A2:2022, including the May 2023 Corrigendum and Amendment 3 (2024) remains current but will be withdrawn on the 15th October 2026
During this transition period, designers or installers may use either edition to demonstrate compliance for an installation. However, they must clearly select one edition and apply it in full, as it is not permitted to mix requirements or clauses from different editions.
The Regulations apply to the design, erection, and verification of electrical installations, including additions and alterations to existing installations.
Existing installations that were installed in accordance with previous editions of the Regulations may not comply fully with the requirements of the current edition. This does not necessarily mean that such installations are unsafe for continued use or that they require upgrading.
