Introduction
This Guide is for businesses placing electrical equipment products on the market in Great Britain. Read guidance on the regulations in Northern Ireland This Guide is designed to help you comply with The Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016, as they apply in Great Britain (referred to in this document as the “2016 Regulations”). The 2016 R...
Legislative Background
The Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 implemented EU Directive (2014/35/EU) on electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits (commonly called the Low Voltage Directive). The EU Withdrawal Act 2018 preserved the Regulations and enabled them to be amended so as to continue to function effectively now that the UK has...
Scope
The Regulations apply to all electrical equipment that is designed or adapted for use between 50 and 1,000 volts (in the case of alternating current) and 75 and 1,500 volts (in the case of direct current). The Regulations cover domestic electrical equipment and equipment that is intended for use in the workplace. The Regulations do not apply to ele...
Obligations of Manufacturers
A manufacturer is a person who manufactures electrical equipment, or has electrical equipment designed or manufactured, and markets that equipment under their name or trademark. The obligations of manufacturers of electrical equipment include: 1. Before placing electrical equipment on the GB market, the manufacturer must ensure that the equipment h...
Obligations of Authorised Representatives
Manufacturers are able by written mandate to appoint authorised representatives to perform certain tasks on their behalf. Mandated authorised representatives for the GB market can be based in GB or Northern Ireland but cannot be based outside the UK. A manufacturer can only mandate an authorised representative established in the UK under the Regula...
Obligations of Importers
An importer is a person or business based in the UK who places equipment on the GB market from a country outside the UK. This means that UK businesses which used to act as a ‘distributor’ before 1 January 2021 legally become an ‘importer’ if they place products from an EEA country on the GB market. This includes electrical equipment that is supplie...
Obligations of Distributors
UK businesses that were distributors of electrical equipment within the EU single market should now consider whether they are importers from the EU single market and therefore what additional responsibilities they may have – see section 6 above. The same applies to distributors of goods from the EEA and Switzerland. A distributor is any person, oth...
Qualifying Northern Ireland Goods
The government committed to providing unfettered access for qualifying Northern Ireland goods to the rest of the UK market after 1 January 2021. Products that can be placed on the market in Northern Ireland in accordance with the legislation, as it applies to Northern Ireland, can be sold in the rest of the UK without any additional approvals. This...
Enforcement and Penalties
In Great Britain, local trading standards authorities have a duty to enforce the 2016 Regulations in relation to consumer goods. For electrical equipment intended for workplace use, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE)has a duty to enforce the 2016 Regulations in Great Britain. The Office of Nuclear Regulationis responsible for enforcing the 2016 ...

What is the voltage of a plug in the UK?

Just like the rest of Europe, the voltage in the UK is 230 volts and the frequency is 50 Hz. An ungrounded plug with plastic earth pin. Type G plugs and sockets started appearing in 1946 and the standard was first published in 1947.

What is a notice of publication for low voltage electrical equipment?

Notices of publication from the Department for Business and Trade and its predecessor the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy are provided above for designated standards for low voltage electrical equipment. This is in support of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 (as amended).

Do all countries have a plug & voltage standard?

If you take a scroll down the page, you will notice that most countries have a well-defined plug and voltage standard. Many Latin-American, African and Asian countries, however, use a motley collection of – often incompatible – plugs and sometimes also the voltage differs from region to region.

What is the Low Voltage Directive (2014/35/EU)?

2. Legislative Background The Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 implemented EU Directive (2014/35/EU) on electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits (commonly called the Low Voltage Directive).
