Scope Of Work
This project consisted of installing a paging system for the Joel C Bradshaw Fairgrounds in Isle of Wight County in Southeastern Virginia.
The system contained a total of 36 Atlas Sound thirty watt paging horns that were strategically placed on light poles throughout the fairgrounds. The equipment rack containing the mixer and amplifiers was located in a small cabin in a remote area. All wiring was installed in PVC conduit that was placed in trenches dug to each light pole. Over 4000ft of AWG 10 gauge wire was used. A speaker disconnect was installed at the base of each light pole for servicing and four speakers were arrayed around each pole for a full 360 degree sound dispersion.
The equipment head end consisted of a simple setup with push to talk paging microphones that would override the music sources when used. Connections for an IPOD and CD player were installed on a custom rack panel. An LED audio meter was also installed for verifying the mic operation
