    Understanding Touring Dimmer Rack Patch Panels

    Rudder Auditorium at Texas A&M University had a Kliegl patch panel very similar to the SAFEPATCH, just without the circuit breakers. It was fed by (60) 10k? dimmers and had 400+ circuits. Each dimmer had 10 holes and all the circuit hots were above with counter-weighted, retracting leads. It...

    I have no words.....

    This is incorrect. It's a 3 phase, 240V delta system where the high leg is 208V to neutral. The high leg can't be more than the phase to phase voltage without some seriously weird transformer configuration.Also, as mentioned above, orange is also commonly used as a phase color for 480V...

    A new HS theatre under construction

    Gotcha. There's definitely an art to precast construction. It's things like this where you have to rely on your precast vendor and experienced construction forces for constructibility and it's influence on design.

    A new HS theatre under construction

    I'm with venuetech, in post #1, the first picture, it doesn't look like there's a opening in the proscenium wall to access the loading bridge from the spiral staircase. Will they cut this in later? I would have thought it would have been cast into the wall panel.

    Chauvet Rogue 3 spot

    I've noticed this as well with our Chauvet Maverick Profiles. We don't have the reversed pan and tilt, but we do have the issue with the color wheel and gobo wheel being off by one position. I think there are also inconsistencies with the zoom. Our profiles zoom opposite to other fixtures in...

    What are the specs on the mirror ball motor? Is it DMX or dimmer controlled?

    Megabatten

    And if the low voltage cabling is related to the load supplied by the power conductors, such as 0-10V dimming ballasts, or in our case data to the lights supplied by the power conductors. Although I don't think the "related" requirement is met if there's more than one circuit in the pipe.

    What permanent cable installs should I get to help with video flexibility

    (6) CAT6 cables, especially STP, exceeds rated conduit fill for a 1/2" conduit. You likely need 3/4" or 1" for that many CAT6 STP cables.

    ETC Element 2 Console

    I hope not. I suspect this a replacement for the aging RFR3 system. I.E. for those that don't want to use their phones or venues with multiple operators that don't want to purchase and install the apps multiple times.

    Another query on receptacle label preferences

    I would prefer both. Panel and circuit number for maintenance purposes, LOTO, etc., DMX for operational purposes.
