Pop up power units for the Piazza at Covent Garden
Covent Garden Technical Services Team needed a power solution for temporary stalls and events that are put on throughout the year. Six retractable service power units from Pop Up Power Supplies were specified for the Piazza area. The flip top power units provide a safe, efficient and stable outdoor power supply. The 450kg units are buried out of sight beneath the cobbled Piazza and are raised out
Covent Garden Technical Services Team required an outdoor power supply for temporary events and stalls. Due to the seasonal and temporary nature of the events, they didn’t want permanent fixtures which would impact on the aesthetics of the environment, as it is considered a Grade 1 Listed site.
Product supplied
Designers specified a total of six pop up power units in the Piazza at Covent Garden, London. The outdoor power units (PUPS01) provide an effective and safe power supply to the Piazza area and offer a combination of 16A and 32A electric sockets in single and three-phase, with RCBO protection.
The pop up electric sockets are perfect for the Covent Garden site, as when they are not being used, they are simply lowered into the ground, with a removable turning handle, and the lids contain the same paving as the Piazza area meaning they are sensitive to the historic appearance of the glorious site.
