Electrical Safety Standards for the Private Rented Sector Regulations

The new Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 include a number of requirements related to inspections, safety standards and having necessary improvements completed promptly.

The government’s goal for these regulations was to force negligent landlords to take additional measures in order to keep their tenants safe.

In the event that a landlord is found to be non-compliant with the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector Regulations 2020, a fine of up to £30,000 may be imposed.
