[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 393987, member: 6969"] That's helpful OnOff, but it really only makes the statement "ordinarily accessible" Where it defines that as : "In this regulation the expression “ordinarily accessible” means the overhead line could be reached by hand if any scaffolding, ladder or other construction was erected or placed on, in, against or near to a building or structure." IT does not give any specific dimensions, or even what reach from a set of scaffold is considered "ordinary" Obviously the DNO here are playing sate with 6 metres, even a 2 metre wide (unusually wide) scaffold would leave you 4 metres from the line which would not be "ordinarily accessible" But the question this is trying to solve is looking for a specific legal minimum separation between a newly to be build building and an existing overhead line.
