Policy and research

We work closely with the respective UK and devolved governments to improve electrical safety standards across the UK.

Major campaign issues include housing, better regulation of the online sale of electrical goods, protecting vulnerable people in unsafe homes, preventing fires, and considering the future use of electricity in the home.

We carry out research on specific areas of interest, including product safety, housing, and how we will use electricity in the future. Our annual consumer survey examines general attitudes towards electrical safety.
