A major electrical product safety conference addressing critical industry issues including e-mobility, sustainability and AI is being held later this year.
The 17th annual Electrical Product Safety Conference, organised by consumer safety charity Electrical Safety First, will take place on Thursday 16 October 2025 at The Mermaid, Puddle Dock, London.
Sponsored by UL Standards & Engagement and hosted in conjunction with the International Consumer Product Health and Safety Organisation (ICPHSO), the event brings together experts from across the electrical retail and safety sectors.
This year's conference theme, 'Back to Basics', emphasises that despite rapid technological advancements and complex supply chains, mastering fundamental safety practices remains essential for both businesses and consumer protection.
The conference will address several critical areas affecting electrical retailers, including challenges in e-mobility, the transition to sustainable product design, combating counterfeit products, and emerging issues in electrical safety.
Speakers will include representatives from UL Standards & Engagement and the Office for Product Safety and Standards, alongside other leading voices in consumer protection and industry standards.
Attendees will also have the opportunity to participate in the ICPHSO symposium on 14-15 October before the main conference, offering a comprehensive three-day programme focused on electrical product safety.
Lesley Rudd, Chief Executive of Electrical Safety First, said: "Our annual conference is a great platform for industry professionals and leaders to come together, share insights and drive progress in the sector. I am eager to see how the valuable discussions and collaborations that arise from this year's event contribute to shaping a safer future for electrical products."
