For a H&S viewpoint, an ELV domestic system would save around 20-25
domestic deaths and around a third of a million serious injuries from

Is that in Doncaster, nationally, or world wide?


That is the number of deaths and serious injuries in the UK every year.
Around 2.5 million people in the UK also receive a mains voltage
electric shock every year.
