• Are these LED panels certified fire-resistant to BS476-22? • Will their installation comply with Building Regulations? • Is fire-safety compliance maintained after installation? • Is fire insurance cover compromised after installation?
There are many fire-resistant LED lights that comply with Building Regulations and safety legislation.

ENFORCEMENT. The main enforcing authority for the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 will normally be the local Fire and Rescue Authority. However there are some special areas where others have been appointed as the enforcing authority. These are listed in detail in article 25 of the Order. Building Control Bodies (BCB) are responsible for enforcing standards and ensuring compliance with Building Regulations. There are 2 types: • Local Authority Building Control. • Approved Inspector Building Control. Since 2002, Government has additionally established Competent Persons Schemes to allow individuals and enterprises to self-certify that their work complies with the Building Regulations as an alternative to submitting
