Hi, can anyone tell me where to get stats on electrical related injuries to the public in the UK domestic environment? -I.E not work related.

I am looking for details on the number of injuries and also the type of injury. It would be good if I could screen out DIY related incidents as I am mainly interested in appliance related issues.
Thanks for any help. Simon

Hi Simon,

Have you ttried ROSPA?
Broad figures are at:

I'm sure they have some more detailed info if you ask (but they might charge for it).
