PROFESSIONAL BODY

IET is an international membership organisation for electronics, electrical, manufacturing and IT professionals. It was formed through the merger of several former bodies, most recently including the Institution of Electical Engineers (the IEE), the Institution of Manufacturing Engineers, the Institution of Incorporated Engineers and the Society of Engineers.

Of most relevance to the building conservation sector is its role in electrical systems of buildings and the built environment, IET is the organisation responsible for BS 7671 the IET Wiring Regulations, and it publishes journals, codes of practice and standards on a wide variety of related fields including lighting, renewables and electrical energy storage.
