I’m working in a theatre that has a million dimmers in the grid, but of course we’re using 12 ETC D40s, 10 Lustrs and 2 MK2 movers. I’ve found 3 blocks of 4 wall outlets on the floor of the space, which’ll require at least a 50’ extension cable to put the power where I need it.
Should I run 12 cables from the outlets up to the grid and then use cube taps? Is there a kind of mult cable for Edison plugs that could plug into the four outlets, extend them to the grid, and provide the four outlets up there? I’ve been trying to figure out what dimmer rack the space uses to see if I can just swap some dimmer modules out with relays, but no one can give me a clear answer.
Thank you for any help you can give! Someone mentions power distro online but I’ve never worked with them before. Is that a possible solution? If so, could you recommend how to use them or resources on what that needs?
