I would strongly suggest the following:
1. Get a site visit from a Authorised Person at the DNO.
2. Once the hight limits have been confirmed then think about folding light columns that meet the hight limits.
3. If the customer doesn like the cost of the DNO visit then show them Horrific moment concert-goer is electrocuted after climbing stage at Brazil music festival and grabbing power cable - https://www.thesun.co.uk/video/news/horrific-moment-concert-goer-is-electrocuted-after-climbing-stage-at-brazil-music-festival-and-grabbing-power-cable/
yuk.
 
Work has been postponed due to client approval. I would take a picture but it’s a restricted site and I’d get my arse chewed.
UKPN confirmed that the distance is ‘>20’ and is safe to proceed. The park was constructed in 2003 so it had been signed off.
Going forward it’s going to be a pain. We’ve said in the short term of putting corn lamps in for now.
We have asked about the foldable posts but due to expense it won’t happen.
Cheers though guys. Originally I was just wondering if we could get rid of any induced static through earth rods, like a farraday’s cage on a supply transformer for example. Again for the health and safety mad - wouldn’t have touched it if it was unsafe.
Scary sh*t that it could induce voltage from 20m + during peak!

You could always wear a Faraday suit, sorry stupid suggestion, meant to be funny, but I guess in this case it ain't funny.
