EDF complies with ONR improvement notice

The Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) can confirm that EDF Energy has complied with an improvement notice served in February 2024.  

The notice was served after an employee suffered an electrical shock from a portable heater while undertaking maintenance work at Dungeness B in Kent.   

There was no risk to nuclear safety, the public or the environment as a result of the incident. 

Throughout the duration of the improvement notice ONR has worked closely with EDF and is satisfied that they have completed the necessary requirements of the notice. 

ONR issued the enforcement notice under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 Regulation 4(1), 4(2), 4(3) and (6)(c).
