There are four classes of hazard and if it is a hazard the issue is whether it is a class 1 or 2 hazard?

if it is a hazard can you tell which of the 29 concerns it and why?

Yes it has only one single leaf of blockwork with internal rendering. The front of this outbuilding has also a brickwork leaf I think to give nice appearance. I think that the single leaf of blockwork is made up of strong breeze block, I think that maybe when there are two leafs of blockwork it...

I live in an outbuilding which is made up of strong materials but I think that one external wall is constructed with a single layer of breeze blocks and I would like to know if this is a class 1 or 2 Housing health and safety rating system (HHSRS) harzard

The Council has told me that it relies on the Housing health and safety rating system (HHSRS) operating guidance: but I have seen nothing in it which say that the outbuilding should have its own independent supply of electricity, water and gas unless I have missed something

The City Council told me that it can allow an outbuilding to be used for residential purposes only if it has its own independent supply of electricity and water However in the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018 it is not stated that this is necessary to be fit for human habitation...

My landlord cannot know how much electricity I use because I do not have my separate counter. And, his big house should use a lot more electricity than my small room I have been rented this room for several years without any problem concerning my use of electricty so there should be something...

and others use less than average

We use more electricity in winter but it lasts only about three months

I was thinking that in a house there is a main electrical panel with a main circuit breaker from which we can cut the electricty in all the house and with indiidual circuit breakers which could be used to cut the electricity in each part of the house if work need to be done in a particular part...

It is possible also that my landlord is deranged and greedy. He does not know how much I use of electricity and he is worried that I use too much. He accuses me of using £20 of electricity per day which is impossible for a small room like mine which proves that he is not normal Or another...

If there is no 'main circuit breaker' and not 'electrical panel' in the British houses what there is? Maybe it is called in another way I think that the problem is also electrical if my landlord has illegally messed up with the electricity. I can complain to the Council and issue legal...

I pay a rent which includes anything and there is nothing about separate payment of electricity in the tenancy agreement. According to the law my landlord has not the right to cut my electricity but not all landlords comply with the law Is it the protection of the cable between the main house...

It is sure that there should be a mean to entirely cut the electricity in my room for example if electric work needs to be done in my room but there is already one mean of doing this inside my room itself because my room has its own electrical panel with small circuit breakers and a main circuit...
