Apologies if this has already been asked guys - I’m sure it must have been - I don’t do a great deal of electrical work these days but have agreed to do this job for someone I know. I’ve fed containers before, but this was in a dockyard. We fed 3 phase sockets to the outside of a building and plugged the containers in as they had refrigeration units and weren’t staying put for long. This job however is a bit different as the container will be used as a workshop next to a building and is permanent (at least for the foreseeable future). As far as I know regulations for this will be different in terms of earthing: am I right in thinking I will have to use a rod and put the container on a TT? I don’t yet know the earthing arrangements of the building which the supply for the container will be coming from. Another issue is that the container is about a metre away from the workshop building which has metal cladding on the outside fixed to structural metalwork. Will this pose a problem as you could touch both at the same time?
apologies if this is very basic stuff for some of you, I just want to get this right.
