EV Charging and loss of neutral

I mentioned in another post that I would contact HSE regarding any issues reported to them arising from loss of neutral and EV charging points. They have responded and confirmed that there has been no incident reported to them. However, they were made aware of a small number of situations that were a result of poor or no load management. I should point out that this is HSE in Northern Ireland.

  • It is not a matter of the wiring regulations. It is a notifiable incident to the HSE, because it is considered very dangerous indeed to then, and should not happen. Your sarcasm is beginning to grate on some of us. Each incident needs to result in a fine which is significant to the DNO, and there were more than 1000 incidents (reported) last year. I suggest £100,000 minimum per incident as an inducement to actually maintain and replace the networks, some of which at 80-100 years old and in a very poor state. Doing nothing is very cheap, danger never is.
