Introduction
This document describes the elements and the procedure of the Water Safety Plan for potable water
installations inside buildings and, for certain purposes, outside buildings but within the premises. The
Water Safety Plan is a risk-based management approach, which aims to provide safe potable water at the
point of consumption of the potable water installation. In order to achieve this goal, the Water Safety Plan
includes a method for the analysis, evaluation and control of risks, which are described in this document
as a combination of likelihood and severity of impact of hazard and hazardous events and which are
present or may arise in the context of the use of potable water installations.
The Water Safety Plan described in this document is based on the principles of process-oriented risk
management outlined in EN 15975-2 for potable water supply systems and it supports the European
Union Recast Drinking Water Directive 2020/2184/EU [1].
1 Scope
This document describes a method for the analysis, evaluation and management of risks that exist or may
arise from the use of potable water installations within buildings and, for certain purposes, outside
buildings but within the premises. Water Safety Plans for potable water supply systems are excluded
from the scope of this document.
The document is addressed to all organisations and other stakeholders which are responsible for
providing potable water within a safe potable water installation inside buildings according to EN 806,
EN 1717 and national regulations.

3.1
Water Safety Plan
approach to ensure the safety of potable water through the use of a comprehensive risk assessment and
risk management that encompasses all steps in water supply from catchment to consumer. For the
purpose of this technical report, WSP is limited to potable water installations within buildings and, for
certain purposes, outside buildings but within the premises
[SOURCE: EN 806-1, definition Figure 1]
3.2
likelihood of occurrence
chance of a hazardous event happening, whether defined, measured or determined objectively or
subjectively, qualitatively or quantitatively, and described using general or mathematical terms (such as
a probability or a frequency over a given time period)

with the potential to cause harm to public health
Note 1 to entry: Condition includes quantity.
3.5
hazard analysis
systematic identification of hazards to human health and of events or situations that may lead to the
occurrence of a hazard to human health from a potable water installation, taking into account:
— The description of the potable water installation;
— The observations made during the site visit;
— The identified deviations from the legal and normative requirements;
— The other knowledge about the water quality, the potable water installation and its use;
— The laboratory results and their local correlation
3.6
hazardous event
event that introduces hazards to potable water installations, or fails to remove them from the potable
water installation
3.7
corrective action
action to eliminate the cause of a non-conformity (non-fulfilment of a nominal condition ) and to prevent
recurrence
3.8
risk control measure
Any action and activity that can be used to prevent or eliminate a hazard or reduce it to an acceptable
level
3.9
risk
combination of the likelihood of occurrence of a hazardous event and the severity of impact if the hazard
occurs
3.10
severity of impact
level of extent or severity of the impact on human health and/or safety of supply from the potable water
installation
3.11
potable water
water suitable for human consumption
Note 1 to entry: The water may also be used for washing, cooking and sanitary purposes.
Note 2 to entry: Additionally conforming to the relevant regulations based on EU directives.
1 See EN 15975-2, 4.6.5.
2 See EN 15975-2, Table A.2.
3.12
potable water installation
pipework, fittings and appliances which are installed between the taps that are normally used for water
intended for human consumption in both public and private premises and the distribution network, but
only if they are not in the responsibility of the water supplier, in its capacity as a water supplier, under
the relevant national law
3.13
validation
obtain evidence, assessment and approval of the capability of the current or proposed control measures
3.14
verification
routine confirmation, through the provision of objective evidence, that the potable water supply system
is delivering water in accordance with the set objectives and that the risk management approach is
effective
3.15
inventory documentation

5 Modules and process of the WSP
5.1 Flowchart and elements of the Water Safety Plan
Figure 1 — Overview of modules of the WSP approach
5.2 Assembling WSP-Team
The first step in the Water Safety Plan approach is to assemble a Water Safety Plan Team (WSP-Team).
The WSP team should have a team leader who coordinates the team and its tasks. Any party involved in
the water system shall be invited to join the WSP team. Depending on building members can be e.g.:
— Planner, designer;
— Installer, contractor;
— Operator;
— Maintainer;
— Building administrator;
— Facility manager;
— Safety manager;
— Owner, investor;
— The person with responsibility for hygiene in the building;
— Representatives of the responsible health authorities.
The interdisciplinary team should have adequate knowledge of the building’s potable water installation,
appropriate technical and hygienic expertise and be responsible for the development and
implementation of the WSP steps.
5.3 System description
5.3.1 Technical description
An essential element of the system description is a technical description of the entire potable water
installation including the actual operating conditions since commissioning. This can be done by a
combination of preliminary talks, inspection of the inventory documentation and site inspection with an
assessment of the structural conditions and operating modes. This makes it possible to i
