TLC prices are ex-VAT making their actual price for the BYB also nigh on £80

As has been pointed out, virtually all books (including BS7671) are 'zero rated' for VAT. In case you're not convinced, I've just gone through the motions of ordering from TLC ....

No.

No.

Actually, books are subject to VAT, but at 0%. If you are a publisher, it really matters.

Indeed so. As you say, they are 'zero rated', not 'exempt' - and, as you point out, that is important to those who produce them.

Jolly good.

Please lend me some money - it will of course be subject to interest on repayment.

I'm always the mug on this forum, I never get to be the pedantic one so I really enjoyed that.

As you probably know, it makes a big difference in terms of what VAT can be reclaimed by a company.

When de-rating, what's the process when many methods are used. Example:

From CU on ground floor upto loft via conduit buried in a chase all the way up (so over 5m long), then through the joist bays covered in insulation exceeding 100mm thickness.

That's method A and 101#

Take the 'worst' method?

Yes.

Yep (assuming the first page includes whatever installation method you're interested in).

Keep your head down - the Copyright Police might be after you

That applies to something like this?!? Thats just criminal. This is a legal document, and its not like I am selling it. I find it hard to believe this is the intention of that rule, especially considering Copyrighted regs from all over the world are posted in other forums without issue, even used as stickies.
