BS EN 1263-1:2014 — Temporary works equipment. Safety nets. Safety requirements, test methods

Provisions the documents cite: whole standard — safety requirements and test methods for safety nets and accessories

What it requires

The product standard for safety nets and their accessories used in construction and assembly work to catch falling persons: the safety requirements and test methods the net system must meet, based on the performance of polypropylene and polyamide fibres. It does not cover installation — positioning is BS EN 1263-2. Scope as summarised on the publisher and distributor listings; the standard is paywalled and was not read.

The instrument itself: https://knowledge.bsigroup.com/products/temporary-works-equipment-safety-nets-safety-requirements-test-methods. The summary above is our plain-English reading, not the text of the instrument — always work from the source.
