Statutory basis, cited on the form

EAWR 1989 — Electricity at Work Regulations 1989
IET Guidance Note 3 — Inspection and Testing
ENA G98/G99 (Engineering Recommendations G98 and G99 — connection of generation equipment to the distribution network)
IET Code of Practice for Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Installation
Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B (2019 edition, as amended) — fire safety

Guidance and standards relied on

These are not law. HSE guidance carries no statutory force in itself, British Standards and NASC technical guidance are industry documents, and the Joint Code of Practice is an insurers' code. They are what the document is built to — and where a court would look for the standard of the reasonable contractor.
