I am an author of electrical safety books published by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), Chartered Engineer and Fellow of the IET with broad-ranging experience of electrical engineering as well as data and controls. I run a busy consultancy practice providing design and electrical safety management advice. I have developed and deliver training to private organisations and public bodies including the HSE and act as an electrical authority for trade associations and organisations including the BBC.
I have extensive knowledge of electrical safety principles, relevant legislation and appropriate standards. I am a member or chair a range of national British Standards Committees and am a UK representative on international committees responsible for electrical safety standards. I have four books published on electrical safety (including the UK guidance on what is known as 'PAT testing') and one on lighting control.
I have given expert advice to the courts in health and safety cases on behalf of both the prosecution and defence teams. I have acted in insurance disputes and civil cases. I am experienced in preparing expert reports compliant with the Civil Procedure Rules (Part 35) and the Criminal Procedure Rules (Part 19) along with associated practice directions. I have prepared joint reports where there are differing opinions between experts submitted to the Court and I also have experience of attending court and being cross-examined.
