It may also be suitable for anyone requiring an understanding of BS 7671.

Numbering system for Special installations or locations differs slightly …
The numbers appearing after a Section number generally refers to the corresponding Chapter, Section or Regulation within Parts 1 to 6 or another Chapter, Section or Regulation within Part 7.
The numbering system does not, therefore, always follow sequentially.
Regulation (701) indicates the Regulation is in Section 701 – Locations containing a bath or shower (which is in Part 7 Special installations or locations).
The following numbers in the Regulation (415.2) point us to Regulation 415.2, which is located in Part 4 (Additional protection: Supplementary equipotential bonding).
As a result, Regulation 701.415.2 relates to supplementary equipotential bonding within a location containing a bath or shower.
