Your team safely runs mains power to the A/V booth, the stage, and the active loudspeakers. Audio Cabling handles audio cables.

Before starting, review the team's DC-83 and sheet 4-1 in the schematics.

Main reference — Sheet 4-1: stage area equipment and power layout

Use Sheet 4-1 for the venue outlets, stage power route, stage monitors and the path toward the A/V booth.

Electrical safety:
Only a qualified person performs electrical work that requires a qualification. Never change an equipment ground. Set aside damaged cords, avoid overloaded circuits, and keep power away from the baptism area and wet floors.

What your team does

  1. Confirm the two venue outlets shown on sheet 4-1 and check the expected loads.
  2. From the left outlet, run the booth supply along the stage front and then down the centre route to the A/V booth.
  3. From the right outlet, supply the stage equipment, including the two stage monitors.
  4. Confirm safe wall sockets for the lobby and Accounting speakers. Keep the Accounting supply away from the baptism area.
  5. Cover every floor crossing. Tell the nearby teams before switching on, then hand the checked booth supply to the A/V Booth team.
  6. When the power work is safely finished, check with Lacey and help Audio Cabling coverwith the remaining cable work, including floor crossings.

Power routing reminders

  • Agree the route with Stage and Audio Cabling before laying mains power through their work area.
  • Where practical, keep mains power separate from audio cables. If they must cross, cross them at right angles.
  • Keep participant paths and exits clear, and protect any floor crossing before the area is used.

The venue wireless receivers at the stage may also need power; confirm this with the venue technician.

The PCS-2 case weighs about 50 kg and should be rolled with a helper. Sunday teardown assignments will be added later. At teardown, wait for the safety meeting and make sure power is off before anything is disconnected.
