Installation and service notification
You and your installer must submit a notification of installation as soon as possible after installing the radiation source. Your installer can provide you with a copy of this.
X-ray apparatus must comply with mandatory requirements about performance, quality and safety before it can be registered. Health Protection Service can arrange for compliance testing to occur after installation.
Applicants are notified about any issues that arise during this process. Remedial action is required before the registration application can progress.
