Best practices for lighting your municipal projects: choosing the right lighting to ensure visibility and safety
Different types of lighting for outdoor events
Choosing the right lighting is essential for ensuring visibility and safety at public events. The selection of lighting equipment must take into account the type of event, the environment, and specific needs. Illuminated balloons, for example, are ideal for large outdoor spaces, offering 360° diffused light. LED floodlights, such as tripod-mounted models or mobile solutions, are ideal for areas requiring powerful directional lighting.
The LUMAPHORE® is a versatile solution that combines performance and mobility, and is equally suited to night-time construction sites and open-air events. This type of lighting balloon is the ideal solution for illuminating public events, both indoors and outdoors. Designed to withstand the most extreme conditions, this spotlight is equipped with 4 additional COB LEDs for optimal ground lighting. Thanks to its versatility and light weight, it can be easily set up and handled, ensuring perfect visibility for your events.
Our CTF10 lighting tower, an area light, is also ideal for all your outdoor events requiring intense illumination and extensive coverage. With its 10-meter mast, it offers great height and a vast illuminated surface, perfect for semi-permanent installations. Easy to connect in series with other towers, it provides uninterrupted coverage of large areas.
How to position your lighting fixtures for optimum coverage?
When choosing lighting, it's crucial to consider factors such as light intensity, range and autonomy. Too little light can compromise safety, while too much light can dazzle participants. Device autonomy, especially for battery-powered solutions, guarantees uninterrupted lighting.
The positioning of light sources is also decisive in optimizing coverage. It's advisable to place fixtures at strategic points, such as entrances, traffic zones and sensitive areas, to avoid shadows. By taking these factors into account, you can guarantee optimum lighting for the safety and comfort of participants.

Protecting and securing electrical installations at your public events
The importance of distribution boxes and cable bushings to secure cables and protect against falls
When organizing a public event, the safety of electrical installations is paramount. It is essential to protect cables and equipment to prevent the risk of falls and short-circuits. Distribution boxes and cable bushings play a crucial role in securing temporary installations. Cable trays conceal cables on the ground, reducing the risk of tripping. They are designed to withstand heavy loads, guaranteeing long-lasting protection, even under frequent vehicle traffic.
Distribution boxes ensure the safe distribution of electrical power throughout the event site. Sturdy and weatherproof, they protect electrical connections from external conditions. To optimize safety, we recommend installing these cabinets in areas accessible only to authorized personnel, thus limiting the risk of intrusion and unauthorized manipulation. They are completely mobile and portable. We can also customize enclosures to meet your specific requirements. Resistant to outdoor conditions, they meet all your electrical needs for public events.
Use of distribution cabinets for safe storage of materials
Distribution cabinets are essential for securing the power supply at public events and construction sites. They guarantee reliable distribution, while protecting temporary installations from electrical hazards. Labérine Énergie offers customizable cabinets, capable of handling 16A, 32A, 63A power supplies, or terminal outlets, adapting to the specific needs of events.
Combined with rubber enclosures, they offer additional protection against shocks and bad weather, ensuring optimum safety. This equipment makes it possible to centralize the management of electrical equipment, facilitating technical interventions and reducing the risk of accidents linked to insecure connections. By choosing robust distribution cabinets, local authorities can ensure that their events run smoothly while complying with safety standards.
Last but not least, it is essential to comply with current safety standards for temporary installations. This includes choosing equipment that complies with regulatory requirements, and regularly inspecting devices for any defects. These best practices help to ensure an incident-free event, enabling participants to enjoy the event in complete safety.
Ensuring service continuity in the event of a power cut
Generators: an indispensable emergency power solution
When organizing a public event, it's essential to have back-up power solutions in place to cope with possible power cuts. Generators are an indispensable option for ensuring continuity of service. They provide a reliable source of energy and maintain power to essential equipment, such as lighting systems, public address systems and security installations.
Generators must be sized according to the power requirements of the event. It's important to calculate total power consumption and allow for a safety margin to avoid overloads. Some models are designed for ease of use, with automatic start-up in the event of failure, enabling a smooth transition between main and emergency power.
Best practices for dealing with power failures during an event
To manage outages effectively, it is advisable to test the back-up system before the event, and to train staff in the handling of emergency equipment. A contingency plan should be drawn up, detailing the actions to be taken in the event of a power cut. Providing a mobile power source is particularly crucial for large gatherings, where the safety of participants depends on a continuous power supply.
