Where can I find the definition of plant. We have been having a discussion at work what is meant by plant. By plant do we mean a small petrol generator if it goes on fire due to an electrical short circuit or is it aimed at the plant/ factory type establishment. E.g. The tyre plant or the car plant. Or is it both.
