Lockdown Scotland New law? Essential electrical work only in private dwellings....

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
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?

    Hi Chris, stepping back on topic, the rules you mention, please provide a link ? Thanks.


    My point was that no distinction is made between those who have been vaccinated and those who have not. I doubt that there are many 80+ electricians!


    I rather doubt that restrictions will be relaxed for people (customers or tradesmen) who have been vaccinated before the rest of us, but you never know what will come next. So for now there are no exemptions.
