Scotland’s first minister announced today that:

“Fifth, we will strengthen the provisions in relation to work inside people’s houses.



We have already issued guidance to the effect that in level 4 areas work is only permitted within a private dwelling if it is essential for the upkeep, maintenance and functioning of the household.  We will now put this guidance into law.”

Any ideas what constitutes essential electrical works to avoid breaking the law unintentionally?

    I`d say that only repairs etc needed to get an installation to work "safely" in order to allow people to live relatively "safely" with regards to lighting/heating etc etc. No additions or cosmetic alterations allowed. just maintain reasonable safety.
