Is your generation compliant with mandatory regulations?

Find out more

As part of the UK's energy transition, all owners of generating sites in Great Britain are required to ensure that their installations are compliant with Loss of Mains protection regulations. The changes are critical to supporting a robust and reliable electricity network and non-compliance will be subject to enforcement action.

Are you ready for the 1 September 2022?

If you are unsure if you need to make any changes, help is available through contractors who can assess your equipment, complete the works and help report compliance. Your distribution network operator (DNO) can also offer help and advice. You can access DNO contact information here.
