Getting the Right Power Setup for Your Event
Plan for More Than You Think You'll Use
Events often scale unexpectedly. Ensure you have more than enough power capacity for lighting, sound, catering, and last-minute additions.
Use Inverter Generators for AV & Quiet Zones
Avoid power spikes and noise complaints. Our inverter models are ideal for:
- Ceremonies
- PA & lighting
- Film screenings
- Market stalls
Map Your Power Layout in Advance
Talk to us about the distances between power sources and gear. We can recommend optimal cabling, distro placement, and contingency options.
Bundle with Other Durham Events Services
