Free Redundant Lights

Now that Oliver Twist is finished and we have to move out it is a good time to go through our redundant equipment. If anyone is interested, there are about 18 assorted lights - mostly patt 23, fresnels and a couple of small floods - that are FREE to anyone that wants them. Most of these lights were in use until mid year. PLEASE NOTE: They are fairly old (I think most date from when the theatre started in the 60's) and in varying degrees of poor condition, including broken locking nuts, stiff gates, etc. Lens & mirrors are still excellent & intact, though could do with a good clean. The plugs have also been removed, so if you want them you'll need to have them rewired and safety checked. If you're interested come down to the Princess May Building (cnr Cantonment & Parry st, Fremantle) on Saturday morning, 19th December, from 9:30am. We could also do with more hands to help with dismantling the stage and proscenium too :) Ciao Rob Tagliaferri Harbour Theatre

Jeff H  could you explain

Jeff H  could you explain in simple terms, the new set up with the Electrical Licence sytem, that was brought in a short while ago.

I realise you did brush on this during the 'Aunty ITA' Ignite Expo. but I can't remember much about it?

This came up when I was working with Bruce Denny at the Garrick recently. Like me he alowed his Electrical Licence registration to lapse over the years.

Mine elapsed after the 5 year period mainly because of variuos Strokes, plumbing jobs to my dicky ticker & failing to notify them of change of adress.

My 'A' Cllass electrical Fitter & Installer Licences, with Austel/Cat 5 endorsements, aparently are regarded as 'Grandad' Licences these days & have been replaced with a new all encompassing licence arrangemt.

Not that I Have any wish or intentions to apply &/or attend, a Tech school 3 stage refresher course over 18 months  at this stage. But it's not something I would not discount completely & I may even do it one day, before I'm body bagged? 

Only if you have the time briefly to explain, as I'm as thick as a brick & twice as dence! This is only for my general interest & not a burning question as such.

I have been thru the cauntlet with those office flunkies at the Electrical Licensing Department & I have paid out on a few rides on thier department carousel. with little or no out come!
