Q. Is PowerGuard 17th Edition compliant ?

A.

Firstly it should be noted that although the 17th Edition was released in January 2008 it did not come into effect until 1st July 2008.  As the current PowerGuard program (v1.2) was released in August 2007 it is deemed as not entirely 17th Edition compliant at this stage.  An Update to resolve this will be issued free of charge to all registered PowerGuard users when available.

Please note the following:

• •BS 7671:2008 was issued 1st January 2008.
• •Installations designed between 1st January and 30th June 2008 may comply with BS 7671:2001(2004) or BS 7671:2008.
• •Installations designed after 30th June 2008 should comply with BS 7671:2008 only.
