Thousands of assignments since 2016.

International sports competitions, concerts in Zéniths, in stadiums and on tour, fairs, trade shows, corporate shows, festivals or ceremonies: our teams know the terrain.

Venues that leave no room for improvisation.

Out of respect for the confidentiality agreements signed for each event, we name venues here rather than clients or artists. A selection of venues where our teams have worked.

Types of events

From trade show to stadium, from stage to set.

Each type of event has its own electrical constraints.

Concerts and tours

The distribution cabinets sit behind the stage. Ideally, each department has its own source, with its own cabinet or cabinets, to avoid “buzz” and other electrical interference caused by the electronics in some equipment.

In Zénith arenas, in stadiums and on tour.

Trade shows, fairs and conferences

Each stand must have its own power box fitted with a 30 mA RCD to protect people. Running an extension lead from the neighbouring stand, known in France as ilotage, is refused every time by safety officers.

A trade show with 300 powered stands means 300 power boxes.

Sports competitions

National and international competitions, in arenas, in stadiums or in the great outdoors.

Festivals and open-air events

Generators, temporary metered grid connections, cable routing and wheelchair-accessible cable protectors.

The feasibility of a connection to the existing grid is assessed before any use of generators.

Corporate shows and ceremonies

Conventions, corporate shows, ceremonies: a safe installation, sized to what is actually needed.

Power assessments calibrated on our field data: no systematic overcapacity.
