Hiring diesel generator sets is analysed by applying the settled attributes of a transfer of the right to use goods: identified goods must be delivered, possession and effective control must pass, and the customer must use the goods for its own purposes. Where only a permission or licence to use is given and the supplier retains effective control, the arrangement may fall within supply of tangible goods service; where control and possession pass, it is treated as a deemed sale outside that service category.
