Building Electrical Systems
The BES sector is focused on improving product safety and sustainability within building infrastructure. The BES members represent the UK in the development and maintenance of product standards at UK, EU and International level via our active and experienced technical committees. BEAMA is also represented at JPEL/64, Electrical Installations of Buildings, which is the joint IET/BSI technical committee responsible for the maintenance and development of the UK wiring regulations (BS 7671). The groups provide regular responses to Government consultations and requests on subjects such as improving electrical safety, sustainability, and supply chain.
Members produce regular guides and documentation relating to changes in Regulation, Standards and new technologies to keep designers, specifiers, installers and the supply chain up to date and safe in the knowledge this is produced by groups of experts.
In conjunction with CECAPI (European committee representing the Associations of Manufacturers of Electrical Installation Equipment) and MSSI Europe (Market Surveillance Support Initiative), members work to eliminate unsafe and non-compliant electrical products in the UK and Europe to help protect people, goods and property.
If you are a UK manufacturer and interested in joining this group, please contact Nick Hayler
“ Every building, whether it is residential, commercial or industrial, relies on a safe and uninterrupted supply of electrical power. BEAMA members manufacture virtually all of the low voltage equipment found in buildings, and our industry aim is to deliver products that give the peace of mind which comes hand in hand with performance and safety standards compliance. Electrical infrastructure equipment contributes not only to safety but also energy efficiency, and BEAMA works with its members to influence standards and regulations that deliver against these twin objectives.”
