so i'm planning for a show in august and had some general questions that i think other could benefit from.
my first question is in regards to tapping into the venue's power supply. they have a company switch that is a three-phase, 240volt, 200amp. i have access to a number of powerDistros, but i'm not sure if the 240volt will work as I have only seen them used for 120v stuff previously. if the voltage doesn't matter, than life is easy - but i'm not sure
secondly, we're hanging two 30'truss pieces with two 1/2ton CM hoists on each end. on the PD's i've seen a 60amp motor cable output, and was wondering how the whole motor system works. does power from the PD go to a motorControl that has independent outs for each motor?
thank you all for your help and I hope others learn so that i'm not the only idiot around here ;-b
