ELECTRICITY SUPPLY

The official Electrical Contractor for the show is Electromaher Ltd. For safety reasons Electromaher are the only electrical contractors allowed to carry out work on stands or features within the hall. An order form for electrical fittings Form No 3 is available in the rear section of this manual. To avail of the early bird discount of 10% please return your form by 9th December 2016. Exhibitors providing their own lights will be charged an agreed amount on request to cover mains provision, connection fee, consumption and insurance documentation. Due to insurance and bonding requirements - required by the RDS, permission in writing must be obtained from the Organisers if exhibitors wish to use a Contractor other than the Official Contractor. In such cases a connection and consumption charge will apply. A kilowatt charge is also applicable where exhibitors will need a large electrical load. To provide all necessary power, all orders should reach Electromaher by 9th December 2016. After this date we cannot guarantee that we can fulfil all late power orders. Please note with clients own fittings a charge will be based on connection, consumption, health and safety inspections, electrical insurance and services of a standby electrician during the event.

EXHIBITOR BADGES

A reasonable quantity of Exhibitor Badges will be supplied to Exhibitors at the RDS (Organisers Office) from 12 noon on FRIDAY 20th January - we will send you a link to complete.

Due to increased high demand on site with both badges not being ordered and lost/misplaced badges, we are afraid we can no longer offer an on- site print to order facility. Any badges ordered after the deadline or indeed ordered on-site will be issued a General Exhibitor Badge.

FORKLIFT FACILITY

A competitively priced lifting and storage facility is provided by the Organisers but must be booked in advance with Form

No 6. The latest deadline for this service is the 6th of January 2017. For health and safety reasons, only forklift trucks authorised by the organisers will be allowed work within the halls.

ACCOUNTS All Areas: Georgina Nichols - Accounts Queries - [email protected]

RETAIL SALES SHOWCASE IRELAND IS A TRADE FAIR. Exhibitors wishing to carry out retail sales must have prior written permission from the Organisers.

RULES & REGULATIONS A copy of the Rules & Regulations pertaining to the Exhibition is included at the rear of this manual. These rules & regulations are important so please read them carefully.

SECURITY While every reasonable precaution is taken and the premises patrolled day and night, the Organisers expressly decline responsibility for any loss or damage which may befall the person or property of any exhibitor from any cause whatsoever. Only designated entrances and exits should be used by exhibitors during the opening hours of the exhibition. Fire doors and emergency exits must not be used.

SECURITY HINTS FOR EXHIBITORS

1. Do not leave cash, handbags, valuables etc. in unlocked drawers or cupboards.

2. Do not ask staff from your neighbouring stand to ‘keep an eye’ on your stand. If they get busy you could be the

loser. Always ensure you have enough staff to man your stand.

3. Think about the design of your stand – do not put boxes of accessories at the front of your stand out of your view.

4. Do not leave your exhibits at night before visitors are clear of the show. In general try to man your stand until at

least half an hour after the close of the stand.

5. Please check all lockable units before leaving the stand.

6. Please report anything of a suspicious nature immediately to Security or the Organisers.

STORAGE OF PACKING CASES No packing cases of any description can be stored in the exhibition area. Exhibitors are responsible for removing packing cases clear of the premises or in designated area before the exhibition opens.

TIMETABLE A timetable for build-up, show open and breakdown is on the second page of the manual.

Clearance of exhibits: clearance of exhibits may begin once the show has closed on Wednesday 25th January at 4pm. As exhibitors will appreciate however, it is particularly difficult to provide effective security during the dismantling of the Exhibition. We would ask you therefore to remove products, dressing, equipment etc. before leaving on WEDNESDAY evening. Only heavy goods should be left for collection on THURSDAY for security reasons.

ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE ORGANISED A FORKLIFT FACILITY IF REQUIRED – SEE FORM 6

STAND CONSTRUCTION – IMPORTANT

FIRE PRECAUTIONS

If requested to do so by the City Fire Officer, Exhibitors must provide a fire extinguisher. Exhibitors who intend giving demonstrations or who have a working appliance on their stand, however powered, must provide a fire extinguisher and ensure that their staffs are familiar with its operation.

HEALTH & SAFETY EXHIBITOR RESPONSIBILITIES

The Exhibitor employs or contracts out the work on their stand, making each stand (space or shell) its own separate ‘workplace’ and that the Exhibitor therefore ‘the employer’, subject to all relevant laws and regulations.

Exhibitors have a wider responsibility than they have in their workplace. They have a Duty of Care to each contractor and sub-contractor, along with every person who may come into contact with their work practices. Exhibitors are directly responsible for the safe use and maintenance of every element on their stand and its surrounding environs; this will usually include the general public and/or visitor.

It is the Exhibitor’s responsibility to define exact areas of responsibility between themselves and their Contractors prior to coming on-site. They must especially check that their Contractors are competent and have undertaken a suitable and sufficient Risk Assessment, along with a Method Statement for complex stands - usually undertaken with the Exhibitor. Usually, just submit these to the Organiser. It is the Exhibitors responsibility to ensure such documents are accurate, valid and control measures are in place throughout tenancy. Exhibitors must take reasonable steps to ensure that the Contractors are operating to a safe system of work, including access and egress to and from that stand.

ELECTRICAL HEALTH & SAFETY EXHIBITOR RESPONSIBILITIES

Presently the HSA are in the process of implementing safety requirements to the exhibition industry. To this end we as Electrical Contractor appointed by the Organiser require exhibitors (and their designers/contractors where appropriate) to adhere to HSA regulations as presently in force.

As failure to know or understand these regulations is never a defence kindly be aware of the following: 1. The EC “provision and use of work equipment regulations 1998” places general duties on employers and lists

minimum requirements for work equipment to deal with selected hazards whatever the industry.

2. Where an exhibitor employs or contracts out work on their stand they make each stand (space or shell) into

its own separate “workplace” and the “exhibitor” therefore is “the employer” and as such is subject to all

relevant laws and regulations. Exhibitors are directly responsible for the safe use and maintenance of every

element on their stand and its surrounding environs.

3. All elements and particularly electrical equipment must be constructed, installed, maintained, protected and

used so as to prevent danger.

4. Electromaher Limited is the official Electrical Contractor appointed by the Organisers for this show. All work

on stands, must be ordered through the official Electrical Contractor. It is essential that all information

relating to an exhibitor’s stand is given to Electromaher to allow for load balance and programming of

installations during and before the build-up period. Appliances and pre-fabbed electrics supplied and used by

exhibitors must be tested before use. It is the exhibitor’s responsibility to provide proof of compliance to

regulations.

5. We reserve the right to disconnect the electrical supply to any installation which in our opinion (or the

organiser’s opinion) is dangerous or likely to cause interference to visitors or other exhibitors.

6. Failure to advise Electromaher of all electrical requirements for your stand is a breach of the above safety

requirements and arising from this claims or damage caused shall be the exhibitor’s responsibility.

HEALTH & SAFETY - ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS

Presently the Health & Safety Authority (HSA) have implemented safety requirements to the exhibition Industry. This is ongoing at the moment. This however does not mean that HAS requirements do not have to be adhered to - the opposite is the fact. To this end we as the Electrical Contractor appointed by the organiser request that all exhibitors (and their designers/contractors where appropriate) be required to adhere to all HSA & ETCI 4 regulations presently in force for this location.

Failure to know or understand these regulations is not admissible in law as exoneration. Kindly be aware of the following:

1. The EC “provision and use of work equipment regulations 1998” places general duties on employers and lists minimum requirements for work equipment to deal with selected hazards whatever the industry.

2. If the exhibitor / employer contracts out the work on their stand making each stand (space or shell) into its own separate “workplace”

and the “exhibitor” therefore “the employee” is subject to all relevant laws and regulations. Exhibitors are directly responsible for the safe use and maintenance of every element on their stand and its surrounding environs.

3. All electrical equipment must be constructed, installed, maintained, protected and used so as to prevent danger.

4. Electromaher Limited is the official Electrical Contractor appointed by the Organiser for the show. All work on stands, including any prefabbing, must be ordered through the official Electrical Contractor. It is essential that all information relating to an exhibitor’s stand is given to Electromaher to allow for load balance and programming of installations during and before the build up period. Appliances and prefabbed electrics supplied and used by exhibitors must be tested before being used and proof of this will be required. It is the exhibitors responsibility to provide proof of competency for this issue, particular attention must be paid to the regulations relating to extra low voltage (SELV) lighting. All electrics to ETCI 4 regulations and CER requirements.

5. We reserve the right to disconnect the electrical supply to any installation which in our opinion or the Organiser’s opinion is

dangerous or likely to cause annoyance to visitors or other exhibitors or could cause overloading.

6. Failure to advise Electromaher of all electrical requirements for your stand is a breach of the above safety requirements and arising from this, claims or damage caused shall be the exhibitors responsibility.

7. *Mains for stands using sockets in compliance with ETCI fourth edition regulations c/w CER regulations (711.1-711.559.14.04) must have mains supply + main fuse (no extension leads). In Option 1 the double socket will have a mains supplied but this will be fused down to 1kW loading. If requesting this option, exhibitors must sign the form on application and submitting of electrical form.

Should you require to discuss any of the above, please call us.
