CABLE AND DISTRIBUTION Whatever equipment you’re using, we’ve got the cabling to plug it all together. We can supply a single connector or hundreds of miles of cable (as we do every year at the Edinburgh Festival). Whatever your cable requirements, we can help. What we do We supply single and multi-core power and signal cabling in a wide range of lengths. Our cabling comes in a comprehensive range of power capacities: from 5 amps up to 400 amps. We hire distribution boxes to line terminators (not the film kind) to ensure that you’ll be able to plug all the pieces of kit together.

Information and Support We are happy to give you expert advice on the cabling that will best suit your venue and your production or event – just give us a call. Whatever equipment you hire, we are happy to help you set it up if you want us to.

*


*

Make sure you have enough cabling – there’s nothing worse than being a few centimeters short. Make sure you’ve got the right cabling and connectors for the job – tell us which equipment you are using and we’ll make sure that everything will plug together to give you peace of mind.

*

Cable and Distribution Contents

*

Remember to select the correct cable for indoor and outdoor applications. Make sure that you’re not overloading the cable and that you have the appropriate electrical protection in place.

Such delay shall not constitute a breach of the Contract, provided however that if such delay continues for a period in excess of 14 days, the party not in delay shall be entitled to terminate the Contract forthwith by written notice to the other party. 13.5 Waivers. No delay or failure by the Company in exercising or enforcing any of its rights or remedies under the Contract will prejudice or restrict its rights, nor will any waiver of rights operate as a waiver of subsequent rights.
