forward to continuing our excellent working

generators will support the Festival's catering and
hospitality facilities, temporary structures such as
marquees and site offices and mobile screens. In
addition to the generators, The company will also supply
Hushtower lighting units to light the entrances,
roadways and crossovers.

for all private hire at the event. Mercedes, BMW,
Porsche, BBC Top Gear Magazine and the Highways Agency
are among 220 exhibitors at the Festival of Speed all of
whom have power requirements. Power Electrics has
designed a system whereby six concessions can be
supported by one generator through a purpose built
distribution board.

manpower necessary to install and maintain the
equipment. Two engineers will be on site for the
duration of this year's festival and many more will be
involved in the run up to the event. The company believe
that one of the reasons they are so successful in the
events sector is that they offer customers like Goodwood
a complete service package. "

are very proud of our involvement in such high profile
events like Goodwood. Our hard work and commitment has
earned us a highly respected reputation within the
industry. Power Electrics has doubled in size in the
last ten years but we are still a close knit, family run
business at heart.
