The Law & Legal Requirements

The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, the Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations 1999, the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992, and the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 are the primary pieces of legislation relevant to electrical maintenance. These regulations mandate that employers and employees ensure the safety of all persons using work premises, conduct risk assessments, maintain work equipment efficiently, and adhere to electrical safety guidelines.

The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER) are particularly significant in ensuring the safety of electrical appliances and systems at work. The PUWER 1998 applies to all work equipment used by workers at work, including fixed, transportable, or portable equipment connected to a source of electrical energy. PUWER does not apply to fixed installations in a building, which are instead governed by the Electricity at Work Regulations. These regulations require all electrical systems to be of such construction and maintenance to prevent, so far as reasonably practicable, such danger.
