480V power systems are common on our stages and sets and have many benefits as well as hazards. This class will instruct you on what you need to know to plan, rig, and use 480V Power Systems safely and effectively on set. Using this technology will greatly benefit production and save the backs of the crew with long runs using a transformer. This class will also focus on the hazards of 480V power and how to identify them.
