Standards
- BSR E1.32, Recommended Practice for the Inspection of Entertainment Industry Luminaires
This document provides guidance in the inspection of stage and studio luminaires used in the entertainment industry. The information contained in this document is intended to supplement, not replace the information contained in manufacturers' maintenance instructions. The standard will promote the proper maintenance and safe use of stage and studio luminaires.
- BSR E1.19 - 200x Recommended Practice for the use of Class A Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) intended for personnel protection in the Entertainment Industry
The standard recommends practices for the safe use
of 100 amp or lower, 120-240 VAC, single or three-phase, 60 Hz Class A
Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) for personnel protection in
film and video productions, theatrical productions, carnivals,
circuses, fairs and similar events in North America. GFCIs are useful
for protecting performers and technicians from shock when electrical
equipment is used near or in water, but using them successfully is
difficult in entertainment industry applications due to the nature of
the loads that are driven, the prevalence of dimmed circuits, and the
long load-circuit runs. BSR E1.19 gives advice to help people use
GFCIs successfully to protect performers and technicians from shock in
wet and damp locations.
- BSR E1.19, Entertainment Technology - Recommendations
for the use of ground fault devices in the entertainment industry
The standard is intended to offer guidance on how to select,
install, use and maintain ground fault protection devices
in the entertainment industry. The project is intended to
promote the use of these devices to protect people and property
from hazards associated with using electrical equipment in
wet locations, such as when pools of water are used on stage
or a location video-shoot is conducted in the rain, and to
promote reliability and avoid nuisance tripping.
- BSR E1.18-1 - 200x, Standard for Selection, Installation and Use of Single-conductor Portable Power Feeder Cable Systems for Use at Less then 601 Volts Nominal for the Distribution of Electrical Energy in the Entertainment and Live-Event Industries
The standard is is part of a larger
E1.18 project to offer guidance on portable power feeder cable
systems. There is very little published at this time on how to set up
power feeder cable systems, such as are used to power the lighting and
sound systems at concerts in sporting arenas. The E1.18 project is to
address that lack of guidance to help people set up and use safe
systems. This part, E1.18-1, contains the majority of the
recommendations, suitable for most common portable power distribution
installations.
- BSR E1.18, Entertainment Technology - Recommended practice for the selection, installation, use, and maintenance of single-conductor portable power feeder cable in the entertainment industry
The standard is intended to offer guidance on how to select, install, use and maintain single-conductor portable power feeder cables. The project will promote safety and compatibility in the equipment and practices used in live performance and in film and video production in North America.
