A Good Design but............

Evenin' All,


I have been working in some holiday chalets today on a chalet park by the sea.


One chalet had a lovely new R.C.B.O. consumer unit in it. Beautifully installed. Very neat.


Another had a new split load consumer unit installed in it. Very nicely installed.


But why were they both a waste of money?

    I would say that the chalets are NOT to be bound by section 708 as they are permanent buildings with no wheels and are NOT a "factory produced relocatable dwelling."  They are more like small permanent bungalows.



    What does their planning consent allow? If only say 10 months of the year, to me they are not permanent.

    Some have been there unmoved since the late 50s. They are permanent. Their occupation does not enter into the definition. They were built on site and not transported in as a manufactured unit.


    EDIT. Add. Two reasons why they can not be defined as relocatable units.


    1. Many are old and would fall to pieces.


    2. They can not be moved as the road is too small to remove them by lorry. It is just too narrow. They are there for good.
