Electrical
wiring is a very interesting area. The IEE regulations are a GUIDE to good
practice and not mandatory. They can't be, as the paperwork required to
cover every eventuality would dwarf even the treasury's manual on
taxation.
I have seen the test specification of a modern defence system equivalent
in
complexity to a consumer PC, reach 600 pages of A4( largely unnecessary),

Since the test spec for Windows exceeded 28000 pages back in 1997, (hate to
think how big it is now) either the defence system is almost untested or
somebody in Seattle isn't doing a good job with their testing.
