At Wimbledon club's 9 day summer camp GX3WIM @ Reigate hill this is what I did.

==============================================================
narrow farmer's lane
=======================================================================
Most of the caravans/campers and tents are powered up with 2 long ring cables
runs. The main one was an electric start 7kW diesel running on cheap farmer's
pink fuel, and I provided my 2.3.-3kW (modified) Madusa petrol generator as
backup. I also used a 800W 2 stroke & a small 500W Honda, just for my station,
if the big genny was not run during the day. (QRO still run)
As you can see with such a busy site some RF operating order has to be imposed,
and it is done by being in possession of the "club logbook for that band",
giving you permission to operate on it.
