Intermediate2h 17m # UK Product Regulation and Metrology Act Course Understand the UK Product Regulation and Metrology Act 2025: new product safety powers, CE and UKCA marking today, Northern Ireland and enforcement. On July 21, 2025, a new Act received Royal Assent that will quietly reshape how every electronics company markets its products in Great Britain and Northern Ireland for years to come — not by replacing CE marking overnight, but by handing government a standing, ongoing power to reshape product regulation and metrology through secondary legislation, indefinitely. Most compliance teams have heard the name. Very few can explain what it actually does, what it changed in 2024, or what's moving through consultation right now in 2026. This course teaches the UK Product Regulation and Metrology Act 2025, known as PRMA, from first principles to complete practical compliance, built specifically for electronics manufacturers, importers, and sellers. It starts with the legal architecture itself — why PRMA exists as an enabling framework rather than a single detailed statute, the Retained EU Law problem it was built to solve, and the specific delegated powers in Sections One through Six covering product regulation, metrology, and enforcement. From there it builds the landscape you actually operate in today: the Product Safety and Metrology etc. (Amendment) Regulations 2024 that extended CE marking recognition indefinitely across twenty-one product regulations, exactly when UKCA marking still genuinely matters, and how construction products and medical devices diverge from the general rule. The course then covers Northern Ireland and the Windsor Framework in full practical detail — UKNI marking, dual-placement strategy, and the goods-movement scheme — before turning to the single most consequential live development in this space: the two OPSS consultations published March 31, 2026, proposing to expand product safety obligations beyond consumer products, add cybersecurity and AI risk factors, formalize online marketplace duties, and consolidate seventy-one pieces of enforcement legislation into a modern civil-penalties toolkit. Practical modules on classification, marking strategy, technical documentation, and conformity assessment round out the compliance core. Every module ends with a knowledge check, and the closing modules deliver a complete, realistic end-to-end walkthrough of a composite electronics company running a full five-pillar compliance program from scratch, the common mistakes and edge cases that trip up even careful teams — stale technical files, unreviewed marketing claims, private-label confusion, and treating a live consultation as settled law — and your own thirty, sixty, ninety-day compliance action plan. Built on Krono's regulatory database and current 2026 guidance, covering PRMA's full statutory text, the 2024 CE marking recognition regulations, the March 2026 MHRA medical devices consultation, and the March 2026 OPSS core framework and enforcement toolkit consultations.
