Electricity Act 1992

Miscellaneous provisions relating to supply of electricity

62: Continuance of supply

You could also call this:

“This rule about keeping the power on doesn't exist anymore”

You should know that this part of the law about continuing to supply electricity no longer exists. It was removed on 1 November 2010. This means that the rules it used to contain about keeping electricity supply going are not in force anymore. If you want to know about current rules for electricity supply, you would need to look at newer laws or regulations.
