Intro

Electrical power at techinc was done with very limited resources and funds (practically zer0) that we had at the time. Now we're reaching the point where those limitations are becoming increasingly evident. A number of people have expressed their desire for a substantially larger feed than the 3 x 13A/16A we have now. As such the Powergroup has undertaken the planning to upgrade the power supply and distribution to the space.

What?

Install a 5x 10mm² cable between the UR power cabinet down stairs to the Fusebox in the dirty room, then distribute this to various circuits round the space, replacing the separate UR provided power circuits such as the one in Maker lane, most of the power in Main space, and the network rack.

How?

Good question.
