Get in touch to find out how AIS Wind Energy’s team of sector experts can help you with your statutory inspections and certifications:
The primary legal requirements involve a combination of mechanical, lifting, and electrical inspections tailored to the specific regulatory frameworks of each territory. This includes LOLER for internal service lifts and nacelle cranes, and PUWER for general machinery and safety components, alongside their international equivalents. Systems involving pressure, such as hydraulic accumulators, are inspected under PSSR (Pressure Systems Safety Regulations), while all electrical systems undergo comprehensive safety testing to ensure grid compliance and long-term reliability. AIS Wind Energy provides a unified inspection programme to ensure every component meets the necessary local and international standards, protecting both the workforce and the integrity of the asset.
Under LOLER, equipment used for lifting people (such as service lifts) must undergo a thorough examination every 6 months. General lifting accessories and nacelle cranes typically require inspection every 12 months. Our GWO-certified inspectors provide digital certification for each asset, ensuring your site remains compliant and that all safety critical equipment is fit for purpose.
Yes. We understand that managing hundreds of certificates across a wind farm can be complex. We provide a streamlined documentation service where all LOLER, PUWER, and PSSR certificates are catalogued. This ensures that during an HSE audit or insurance review, you can instantly prove that every turbine in your fleet is fully compliant with UK statutory safety legislation.
