Regulation 9 Information requirements
Information shall be given in relation to any electrical device of a kind approved by a specified person in accordance with these Regulations for the purpose of indicating that the device is of a kind so approved.
The manner in which such information is to be given is that the device shall be legibly marked, or bear a label, with the words “Approved by” followed by the name and reference number of the person in question.
Information shall be given in relation to any electrical device (other than a standard plug after 31st August 1988)—
in respect of which information is not required to be given under paragraph (1) above; but
which conforms to a particular British Standard specified for such a device in Schedule 3 to these Regulations,
for the purpose of indicating that the device conforms to that standard.
The manner in which such information is to be given is that the device shall be legibly marked with such British Standard number or other indication as to identify the particular standard in question.
Without prejudice to any requirement of any British Standard, where it is necessary for the safe operation of any electrical device that the user should be aware of any particular characteristic of the device, the necessary information shall be given by markings on the device itself or, where this is not practicable, in a notice accompanying the device.
It shall no be a sufficient compliance with this regulation to give information in a language other than English.
Information shall not be given in connection with any electrical device by means of a misleading mark or otherwise which purports to indicate or might reasonably be mistaken for an indication that the device is of a kind approved by a particular person specified in Schedule 2 to these Regulations or conforms to a British Standard specified for such a device under these Regulations, when the device is not so approved or does not so conform to the standard, or when any approval has been cancelled.
