I was asked today about installing a generator for a portakabin. I told him honestly that i know naff all all about generators etc. but would try to find out.
He wants the generator to power a portakabin on saturdays, just a few lights and small heater. The portakabin is other side of a field nowhere near a building.
How would installing a generator work for a portakabin. The units prewired with a RCD/CU and rotary isolator on the outside for the incoming supply. Could you wire up a 16A plug to the isolator and just plug this in to a generator.
Is it notifiable? i presume not?
Do generators need to be kept covered up? earthed?
cheers
