In the UK the Health and Safety at Work, Etc Act 1974; the same as everybody else! Basically, the electrician at work must ensure his own safety, the safety of his colleagues, and the safety of any other person who may be affected by his undertaking. In addition, for clarification there is the Electricity at Work Regulations which are under the umberella of the Health and Safety at Work Act and the Institute of Electrical Engineers Memorandum of Guidance for Electrical Installations (17th edition) which act as an Approved Code of Practice (ACoP). The ACoP is not in itself law but will be relied heavily upon by the courts as Best Practice.
