These include the Gas Safety (Installations and Use) Regulations (1998) and the Meter Asset Managers’ Code of Practice (MAMCOP) which set out the roles, responsibilities and expectations of meter installers when safety issues are identified during meter installation visits.</p><p>Energy suppliers must also comply with the Smart Meter Installation Code of Practice. This states that the installer should inform the customer about the dangers of carbon monoxide and the need to regularly have all gas appliances serviced and checked by a Gas Safe Registered engineer. Energy suppliers are also required as part of their licence conditions to take all reasonable steps to provide, free of charge, information about the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning and the benefits of fitting an audible carbon monoxide alarm complying with a relevant British or European safety standard to their domestic customers at least once a year.</p> answering member constituency Devizes answering member printed Claire Perry question first answered 05/02/2018 14:39:44 answering member 3974 label Biography information for Claire Perry
