Specifies safety requirements for electrical installations in areas where it is intended that low-voltage medical electrical equipment will be used on a patient; it applies to new electrical installations and to alterations, additions and repairs of existing electrical installations.

Sets out requirements for the supply of electricity to power consuming devices for shows, carnivals and events, public events and limited duration private domestic or private corporate events where attendance is expected to be in excess of 30 people or when staff are employed for the event.

Sets out requirements for electrical installations associated with site supplies for connectable electrical installations that are intended for connection to low voltage a.c. supply systems (i.e. exceeding 50 V a.c. but not exceeding 1 000 V a.c.).

Specifies requirements for electrical installations associated with connectable electrical installations used for the purposes of accommodation, habitation or other residential, commercial purposes or recreational uses that are intended for connection to external low voltage a.c. supply systems (i.e. 50 V a.c. to 1000 V a.c.) by either a detachable supply lead or a supply lead directly connected to the connectable electrical installation; includes requirements and provides guidance for the installation of extra-low voltage systems (i.e. less than 50 V a.c. or 120 V d.c. ripple free).

Specifies procedures for the safety inspection and testing of low voltage single phase and polyphase electrical equipment, connected to the electrical supply by a flexible cord or connecting device.

Specifies inspection and test methods to demonstrate that low voltage electrical installations comply with safety requirements for the prevention of fire, and to prevent a person or livestock from sustaining an electric shock; covers electrical installations connected to an MEN system of earthing.

Specifies requirements for minimum safety requirements related to the use of generating sets for the supply of electricity at voltages normally exceeding 50 V a.c. or 120 V d.c.

Sets out the minimum requirements for electric lighting systems within publicly accessible areas of buildings to provide visual conditions that facilitate the safe movement of people in the normal use of the building.

The objective of this rapid review is to locate and summarise published peer-reviewed review papers, where possible, relating to the retention of biodiversity on private land in urban areas; the main question that this rapid review answers is “How can urban development support biodiversity retention on private lands?”
