You really want to stear clear of this, I used to work for an
electricity firm and was involved in the billing of construction sites.
They use tonnes of elec, including having massive heaters to dry the
plastering out.

Jon,

I believe it is legal to resell but I think there is a limit to the
'uplift' that you can charge, that was the way anyhow...

If you think that Caravan sites re-sell electricity usually at a flat
rate per 24 hours it must be possible...

Big question is whether or not to meter.... An MCB would limit maximum
available... You may want to consider an RCD or RCBO for safety reasons
as well...

Firstly, can anybody advise if there are legal problems in (re)selling
electricity (either metered or fixed price per week) to a construction
firm working on a site adjacent to my property?

Secondly, has anybody had any experience in this matter?

Thanks and regards.

Jon
