Description: Auxiliary power snake/connections used in either Ballroom 1 or Ballroom 3. One auxiliary AC power feed is located in Ballroom 1, stage right (door open view, door closed view). Another auxiliary AC power feed is located in the mechanical room on the other side of the small wooden door in Ballroom 3. The Ballroom 3 auxiliary AC power feed must be activated by going into the mechanical room, turning on the 60Amp breaker, and then turning on the master power switch for this location's feed. Ballroom 1 auxiliary AC power feed doe not need to be activated. See also Other Equipment from inventory. Used to supply additional power for equipment during large-scale events. Pre-Authorization by the Media Services Coordinator is required! Snake is stored in the Mechanical room.
Setup Considerations: The connection for BR 1 requires the CH751 key (#18 in the Student Activities key box). This connection does not require activation of a separate breaker box.

The connection for BR 3 requires access to the Mechanical room (H6-21 key) of the BR Lobby. When inside the doorway of the Mechanical Room, the connection is on the left wall (which is the other side of the BR 3 wall). Once the cable is securely connected, a 40Amp breaker must be switched on, and the red Main Power throw must be moved to the "ON" position. Both the breaker and the main power throw must be disengaged before removing the power cable.
