Does anyone know of a regulation within the UK or the EU that prohibits a person from performing maintainence or service on electrical equipment if there is no one else present? If so, where can I find it?

You wont find one. As long as the equipment is locked and tagged out, it can be a one man job.

There may not be such a regulation in the UK or EU, unless it comes under NATO requirements, which would be military.

It is good practice however, even with LOTO protocols, to always have two people around, remove all rings, watches, etc., and use only one hand actually near wiring or grounding whenever possible.

If this is for a company's procedures, you can always include the requirements as good practice, if you are unable to find any other regs or laws.

Hope this helps.

Regulations or Directives regarding safety that apply to workers in the EU and UK

Maybe I can ask this another way? What are the Regulations or Directives regarding safety that apply to workers in the EU and UK?

May I suggest a semi-direct way to get the answer?

Do a search for big electrical machinery maintenance & repair companies in European Union and ask if they are regulated for the number of workers to work on a project.
