Power supply

BJCs require a lot of electricity, in a few areas:

The Big top will generally require a 63amp supply

The marquees will need multiple 13amp supplies at 240v for internal lighting, to power the fridges, pumps etc. for the bar, and any bands/sound system will also require power.

Gas space heaters run on 110v, so transformers are required to drive those, plus each transformer needs a 13amp supply.

Festoon lighting for around the marquees and in the camp site runs on 110v so this also requires a transformer.

The Traders require power as well, many rely on laptops and phones to process credit card payments.

A silenced generator hired in is one option for all this, alternatively the venue might be able to supply your needs.

If you are hiring in a generator, be sure to budget for the fuel cost of running it constantly for almost 100 hrs.
