Part p

[Rob69]

I know part p regs apply to domestic but would it also apply to a football club premises ie bar , kitchen , VIP room , changing rooms etc. I only ask as Chairman wants things done his way which does not comply with part p.

 

[raustin]

Part P for dwellings only. So unless the football club has a flat or something attached using the same meter, then no need to worry about Part P.

 

[steptoe]

What would he want done that dont comply with the building regs but would still be compliant with 7671 ?

Do people live and sleep at this football club premises ie bar , kitchen , VIP room , changing rooms????

If not...

I doubt it could be called a "Dwelling"

a-la Approved Document P

Electrical Safety - Dwellings

The clue is in the name. ; \

They do if its Villa Park , players are sleeping on the pitch lately, so all work there would have to be Part Peed ??

That would also be a home of multiple occupancy no?

All building Regulations have to be followed at all times (including Part L).

 

[Rob69]

Part p applies to dwellings only!!!!!!!!!!!! So football club is purely business/commercial (no flat or the like).Therefore part p does not apply but BS7671 obviously

does ,this is how i am reading the situation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There are a number of regulations that cover all types of work, building regulations are one of them. Part P does not apply in this instance.

 

[gordy71]

Yes Rob, so what is it that the chairman wants doing that does not comply with Part p? Just curious to see what situation he wants to skip on part p, but still meet bs7671? Does he have knowledge of electrical installations and regs? You are the sparky! (i guess)

 

[Rob69]

Thanks all, He wants switch and sockets at original installation heights.

Rob69,

This can be done as far as 7671 goes, however, there are other building regs that may apply, i.e. access for disabled, though I'm not sure of the exact requirements without looking it up, nor which part it is.

IIRC there is a download of the relevant section of the building regs for disabled access in the downloads section, trouble is, ask anyone round here I am a very poor driver of this forum software!

Adding links and searching is a bit beyond me on times!!!

HTH

 

[ianmacd]

So commercial property undergoing rewire and he wants them back at the same height? Or something else?

 

[Rob69]

Yes , same original height to match the rest of the building

 

[ianmacd]

What other work is going on? What is the extent of your work?

Actually, that may not be important. Not a dwelling so any work should comply with part M.

 

[Sidewinder]

Ian,

Does Part M apply to refurbs?

Is this the disabled access part of the regs?

I genuinely can't remember!!!

 

[ianmacd]

Not for dwellings but this is not a dwelling.
