Useful background explanations
Some useful information but I found the presentation confusing in places. IET guide has proved more helpful for my purposes

Sloppy work, if this was a wiring installation, someone might get a shock!
Previous editions have had complaints about typo's and errors, so I was expecting the Author and Publisher to take note ... shame on you, still riddled with errors, which makes a book of this nature difficult to recommend as it can't be trusted, even simple maths errors remain or have been introduced. The book overall has an issue with some concepts being explained fully and others being glossed over, with no real explanation of the fundamentals. Abbreviations are used without any key/index or full text on first use, just sloppy. The references to tables is random, some being included, others referred to in the 17th Edition (but vaguely without any location/page/paragraph notation), while I understand reproducing all tables would be excessive, this pangs of poor referencing, and even a degree student would be failed for such poor work. I'm very disappointed, this seems like a rushed (but it's not!) rehash for the 3rd revision, with no summary of the key changes (or even special colouring/sidebar against them in the text). For little effort this could be brought into a consistent style, with an appendix of key tables for ease of reference, and proof read to get rid of the errors. It's just too inconsistent ...

not bad but would like a little more re house wiring examples with radial circuits
Not bad, I would like more examples of real world houses and circuits. Would add greatly to the book. Many thanks
