General Notes:
# Existing 230V/13A wall sockets should only be used for low-current equipment, not large items. The latter will have a separate supply
# New circuits will be installed with local distribution boxes so that there should never be a need to access the main electrical intake room (which beloings to the landlord, not us)
# Re safety emergency buttons (eg. [http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/emergency-stop-push-buttons/3308559/ RS 330-8559]) they can be fitted ''per item of equipment'' or ''per room''. There is a strong argument that if someone away from the area where the emergency occurs runs to offer help they don't want to have to work out ''which'' kit is the problem, and that therefore the ''room'' power should be killed as a 'safety-first' iessue. Comments welcome.
# If in doubt, talk to [[User:AlisonW]]. If you need something special in your area, talk to [[User:AlisonW]]. If you think this is wrong, talk to [[User:AlisonW]].


===Basement===
Now at [[447 Hackney Road/Power]]

Using our existing cable tray to provide cable routes, and four new local distribution boxes so each area as control of its own circuits in the event of a problem.
 
'''Box A''': Power circuits, except overhead lighting, for equipment in general workshop area. Major equipment (eg. lathes) on individual circuits, with mushroom STOP buttons at point nearest central gangway.
 
'''Box B''': All power, except overhead lighting circuits, which is used in the wood workshop. Individual circuits for major equipment plus one 'general sockets'. As appropriate, mushroom STOP buttons to be installed for dangerous equipment
 
'''Box C''': All power, except overhead lighting circuits, which is used in the metal workshop. Individual circuits for major equipment plus one 'general sockets'. As appropriate, mushroom STOP buttons to be installed on dangerous equipment.
 
'''Box D''': All power, except overhead lighting circuits, which is used in the biolab. Individual circuits for major equipment plus one 'general sockets'. ''Q: *Is* there any 'major equipment? May I have details of requirements asap ;-P
 
Maintained emergency exit signs will be located at the two exits; there are already emergency lights in place covering the whole floor.
 
===Ground Floor===

This will be similar to downstairs in terms of getting the power to needed areas; new cable tray along front wall and possibly part-way along centre line, depending upon requirements. Local distribution boxes as appropriate for areas subject to possible 'issues' (I suspect this means electronics lab / soldering area).
