TimR Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 My brother's band have been having problems with power supplies at gigs. On Saturday I was trying to diagnose the problems over the phone when he realised that the one common factor is that this only occurs when they're running off long extension leads. No surprise there then. Anything over 50m is going to start giving them power problems due to volt drop and all the other potential safety issues. The annoying thing is they have a portable generator that they use for outdoor gigs - but only take this if they know there will be a problem. I guess the easiest thing is for them to ask the client but it would be good to have something in writing in their contract and on the web. Something that they can fall back on when they've asked and the client has changed their mind on where the marquee is going and just decided to daisy chain a few extensions together. Do any of you have ideas for wording? What to you do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
