It does not deal with requirements for function or performance except in so far as these may affect safety.

Under regulation 18 (2) of the Electrical Wiring Regulations 1976, such apparatus must comply with the electrical safety requirements of this Standard, unless an alternative specification is selected under regulation 18 (3). To that extent this document will have mandatory application.
