All equipment intended for use at the event must be checked by a licensed electrician and tagged and tested prior to installation onsite. If your equipment has previously been tagged and you need to test it, plug all power sockets into an earth leakage circuit breaker. If the circuit breaker trips out, you have a problem with your equipment. Any equipment found to be faulty will not be connected to the distribution system.
Stallholders must provide their own power boards and 25 metre extension leads to connect to the main distribution system.
Power supply is limited. In order not to overload your allocated supply, you must not bring more equipment than you outline in your application form (distribution will be calculated and accounted for on that basis). Be aware that over usage of sockets has a detrimental effect on other stall holders and we will be policing this heavily. A Taste of the Huon Inc. reserves the right to close a site if they are not acting in accordance with previously stated power requirements.
The following table will give you an indication of typical power usage per appliance:
1 kilowatt = 4.2 amps (Amps = Watts divided by 240)
