Regulation 2
CLASSES OF PLANT AND MACHINERY TO BE ASSUMED TO BE PART OF THE HEREDITAMENT
CLASS 1
Plant and machinery (other than excepted plant and machinery) specified in Table 1 below (together with any of the appliances and structures accessory to such plant or machinery and specified in paragraph 1 or 2 of the List of Accessories set out below) which is used or intended to be used mainly or exclusively in connection with the generation, storage, primary transformation or main transmission of power in or on the hereditament.
In this Class–
(a) “transformer” means any plant which changes the pressure or frequency or form of current of electrical power to another pressure or frequency or form of current, except any such plant which forms an integral part of an item of plant or machinery in or on the hereditament for manufacturing operations or trade processes;
(b) “primary transformation of power” means any transformation of electrical power by means of a transformer at any point in the main transmission of power;
(c) “main transmission of power” means all transmission of power from the generating plant or point of supply in or on the hereditament up to and including–
(i) in the case of electrical power, the first distribution board;
(ii) in the case of transmission by shafting or wheels, any shaft or wheel driven directly from the prime mover;
(iii) in the case of hydraulic or pneumatic power, the point where the main supply ceases, excluding any branch service piping connected with such main supply;
(iv) in a case where, without otherwise passing beyond the limits of the main transmission of power, power is transmitted to another hereditament, the point at which the power passes from the hereditament; and
(d) “excepted plant and machinery” means plant and machinery on a hereditament used or intended to be used for the generation, storage, transformation or transmission of power, where the power is mainly or exclusively for distribution for sale to consumers.
TABLE 1
(a) Steam boilers (including their settings) and chimneys, flues and dust or grit catchers used in connection with such boilers; furnaces; mechanical stokers; injectors, jets, burners and nozzles; superheaters; feed water pumps and heaters; economisers; accumulators; deaerators; blow-off tanks; gas retorts and charging apparatus, producers and generators.
(b) Steam engines; steam turbines; gas turbines; internal combustion engines; hot-air engines; barring engines.
(c) Continuous and alternating current dynamos; couplings to engines and turbines; field exciter gear; three-wire or phase balancers.
(d) Storage batteries with stands and insulators, regulating switches, boosters and connections forming part of any such equipment.
(e) Static transformers; auto transformers; motor generators; motor converters; rotary converters; transverters; rectifiers; phase converters; frequency changers.
(f) Cables and conductors; switchboards, distribution boards, control panels and all switchgear and other apparatus on any such equipment.
(g) Water wheels; water turbines; rams; governor engines; penstocks; spillways; surge tanks; conduits; flumes; sluice gates.
(h) Pumping engines for hydraulic power; hydraulic engines; hydraulic intensifiers; hydraulic accumulators.
(i) Air compressors; compressed air engines.
(j) Windmills.
(k) Shafting, couplings, clutches, worm-gear, pulleys and wheels.
(l) Steam or other motors which are used or intended to be used mainly or exclusively for driving any of the plant and machinery falling within this Class.
(m) Aero-generators; wind turbines.
(n) Solar cells; solar panels.
CLASS 2
Plant and machinery specified in Table 2 below (together with the appliances and structures accessory to such plant or machinery and specified in paragraph 2 of the List of Accessories set out below) which is used or intended to be used in connection with services to the hereditament or part of it, other than any such plant or machinery which is in or on the hereditament and is used or intended to be used in connection with services mainly or exclusively as part of manufacturing operations or trade processes.
In this Class, “services” means heating, cooling, ventilating, lighting, draining or supplying of water and protection from trespass, criminal damage, theft, fire or other hazard.
TABLE 2
(a) GENERAL
Any of the plant and machinery specified in Table 1 and any motors which are used or intended to be used mainly or exclusively for driving any of the plant and machinery falling within paragraphs (b) to (f) of this Table.
