I think my interpritation of fixed is only limited to the fact it is screwed to the wall. It can be unplugged and removed with no tools at any time. Think I'm just getting confused now!!

Thanks all for your replies. It's interesting to get the different points of view. I take on board the advice that it is a fixed install with the same devices plugged in all day every day. i'm happy that I do not appear to be breaking any regs, but also will bear in mind that it is...

I understand where you are coming from, however, my initial question was is this against any regulations, as stated by the electrician. He then immediately wanted to quote for two new double sockets. My initial thoughts were that he is just trying to pull a fast one and earn a quick buck...

Havnt got photo at the mo. It has a laptop lead, small socket sized digital amp and a visualiser(document camera) and one free. Whats funny is the guy has never asked what its used for.

Its not the same. He is not employed by the school or th LA. An independant chap that is sometimes used when needed. All I have done is make the classroom safer. which will always be my priority. I dont think I need any qualifications to stick a bit of trunking to the wall and put a cable in...

Joe, can people in wheelchairs not work then?

your post insinuated if you are disabled and fit to work you do not get a badge. Wrong. Disabled people who work get a badge and mostly park for free. Of course some people dont get one who apply.

Of course u get a blue badge if you are registered disabled. thats my point, the disability discrimination act tells us they should be equally treated, yet in most places they park for free when they could be working full time. You are right about family members using the badges though.

Thanks for all the ideas and suggestions. The mrs is liking a few, but can't seem to make her mind up! We have moved on to what van to purchase! Anyone got a vauxhall vivaro lwb? Or any recomendations?
