Regulations in Great Britain

2.2.1 Technical 

Guidance

The system must be installed in accordance with all rele-
vant and applicable national regulations, and must be in-
stalled to suit site conditions.
Observe all national regulations, including:
-  Working at Heights Regulations 2005
-  Health and Safety at Work Act 1974
-  Electricity at Work Regulations 1989
-  IEE Wiring Regulations BS 7671
- Lightning protection requirements
-  Equipotential bonding of electrical installations.

2.2.2 Related 

documents

The installation of the solar system must be in accor-
dance with the relevant requirements of Health and 
Safety Document No. 635 (The Electricity at Work Regu-
lations 1989), BS7671 (IEE Wiring Regulations) and the 
Water Supply (Water Fitting) Regulations 1999, or The 
Water Bylaws 2000 (Scotland). It should also be in ac-
cordance with the relevant requirements of the Local 
Authority, Building Regulations, The Building Regulations 
(Scotland), The Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 
and the relevant recommendations of the following Bri-
tish Standards:
