It is shameful that the Amendment can’t be downloaded from the IET website as was possible in the past. The Amendment on its own is of no use without the Regs, so making it available for free would not hurt sales of those. Of course a new publication revision including the amendments should be done for new purchasers, but people who already own a red copy ought to be able to update it, not to have to pay to replace it when almost all of it is unchanged.
If nothing else it’s environmentally unsound – unnecessarily using all that paper and ink.
An electrician who made a customer pay to have his entire house rewired when there was nothing wrong with it at all and all he wanted was a new cooker circuit would find himself starring in an episode of Rogue Traders.
What the IET are doing is exactly the same in principle.
