The great British Bake off, how big must the cable be to the tent!

[down2earth]

I was wondering (like you do) how they would supply power to the tent they use in the great british bake off, if you assume that the cookers they are using are roughly 15Kw with diversity thats 26.5A per cooker, there is at least 10 of them plus sundry other electrical appliances, presumably there is going to be a gurt big cable out the back somewhere, has anyone ever had to supply something like this before? and yes, I do have too much time on my hands.

Remember the thread the other day when the guy was adamant that he didn't want LED liGhts in the ceiling, maybe you should have suggested one of those babies,
At least he would have had to cut only 1 hole in the ceiling
not sure about the plastic cladding tho.......

Ha ha yeh...

Think it would be a struggle getting the ballast up there too...maybe he could just put it outside the window shining in, no plastic cladding to worry about then...jobs a good un...

ive worked on few outdoor events doing cameras and i spent more time hanging out with the sparks and it was generator here and generator there and a oil lorry came and topped up every so often.

i.e behind the stage was a big brute of a generator and at smaller tents there was a smaller one..
