Power distribution

Team Keyman 🔑 Crew
Power Jeff Korell Nico Martinez; April Korell

Purpose Thank you for keeping everything safely powered! Your team runs mains power from the venue outlets to the A/V booth, the stage and the active speakers, and then helps cover cables.

Assignment scope
Power runs mains power only. Audio Cabling runs the audio cables. The lobby and Accounting speakers use wall sockets.

⚠️ Electrical safety
• Only a qualified person does electrical work that needs a qualification. Never change any equipment ground.
• Inspect cords, and set aside any damaged cord. Don't overload circuits.
• Never run power near the baptism area (area 11) or wet floors. If equipment must be used where it could get wet, protect it with an RCD (GFCI).
• Cover every walkway crossing, and let the teams know before switching on.
• Roll the PCS-2 (power distribution set, 50 kg) case with a helper.
