It is illegal to use on any plumbing systems supplying drinking water used for drinking, cooking, bathing, or washing (domestic purposes), but can be used in very limited applications such as closed heating circuits.
If you are having any plumbing work done, ask for lead free solder to be used. This will not only give peace of mind but also avoid the inconvenience and cost of rectification work resulting from the use of the wrong type of solder.
