Electrical Safety Requirements for Masonic Guildhall

Steven Wright

I am the deputy site manager for a beer festival that was held at the Masonic Guidhall in a suburb of Greater Manchester. The installation is over 60 years old, no documentation, old bakelite mcbs, no rcds and multiple violations. The majority of the ground floor is supplied from a single 40amp fuse and a series of consumer units. Needless to say there were frequent power outages 

I have submitted my report and need ammunition to back up why they need to see an EICR or equivalent. Nobody seems to be taking this seriously!

Comments please.

    Do they have an entertainments licence. I suspect any insurance that covers it will require proof that the electrical installation to be to a certain standard.

    Popping out on overload isn't  dangerous, the protection is doing its job. It just wasn't designed for the use it is getting and rcd's may have not been required.
