A lot of people quote this book as really useful. I use this groups
archive together with a copy of the On-Site Guide and get on just fine.

However I would like a copy of this and Amazon reviews back up its good
standing. If it's so good why is it out of print?

Anyone have any insider info? Is it just being updated for the
harmonised wiring schemes?

Cheers.

It's always been quite hard to get - I gave Which Books a ring
and they found some lying around. You could see if there are
any second-hand copies on amazon/ebay/abebooks maybe?

Al

I could do but I really like that crisp, new,
first-to-get-me-hands-on-it feel that a new book has.

Im guessing they must be updating it, why take a good seller of the
shelves?

I bought a copy through their website just two/three weeks ago. I'm
wiring a new kitchen and the level of detail, for me, was just about
right. I'd thoroughly recommend it.

There's a insert at the front which I think is about Part P and I can't
recall what it said about the harmonised wiring colours. I guess it
could be getting reprinted.

Or a more sinister/tongue in cheek note, perhaps they feel that with
Part P in force they can't give out some of the advice to DIYers that
they did prevoiusly and are quietly withdrawing it, or only selling it
to those of us lucky enough to live north of the border.

Order it and see what happens, dunno if it's dearer than on Amazon but
at least all the profits are going to the publishers (Which)

OK, cheers will give it a shot.

Excellent, just ordered a copy .

All the other online bookshops and high streets can't get it?

According to Bookbrain http://www.bookbrain.co.uk it's listed as being
reprinted. seeing as the cable colours are changing and the introduction
of Part P it'd be surprise if they didn't

I guess the Which shop has just got the remaining stock.

I believe the Consumers Association (who publish Which) were one of the
bodies consulted about Part P. I would be interested to know what they said
on behalf of "Which" subscribers like myself. I suspect they encouraged it.
