All the work you do on Electric / Hybrid vehicles must follow the Health and Safety legislation concerning the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. This means that garage owners, managers and technicians must adhere to the legislation in order to be legally allowed to work on Electric / Hybrid vehicles.
