Things to consider when organising an event
Generators
You should use mains electricity supplies if possible.
If you must use a generator:
- Diesel models are safer than petrol
- Keep the generator guarded with a barrier
- Store fuel away from structures and combustible materials
- Remember they can be noisy so keep them away from neighbouring properties or provide effective sound insulation
- All temporary electrical systems must comply with British Standards - BS 7909, BS 7430 and BS 7671
