Green Electricals’ managing director once again teamed up with Television Interior Designer Emma Kosh on the CBBC television program ‘The Dengineers’. Having previously worked with Emma on another children’s BBC program ‘Space Pirates’ in 2006. Emma ask Green Electrical to attend a site production meeting to discuss the electrical requirements and to submit a Quotation based upon the agreed Specification.
Once the electrical specification and quotation were agreed and dates set for installation, which were all kept secretive as the Den was to be built as a surprise, Green Electrical started with the first fix.
Running a new electrical supply from the existing house to the new Den location at the rear of the garden, we terminated the steel armoured cable into a new fire rated RCD fuse-board. With the fuse-board and supply tested, day one was complete.
On day two of the installation of both the electrics and the actual building of the Den, Green Electrical worked closely with designer Emma and the CBBC production team, working to detailed plans.
The title of this Dengineers Episode was called the ‘Magic Den’ as Emma’s concept was for a young aspiring magician who had a passion for magic and an ambition to be the greatest female magician in the world (Bravo we say). The Den design was to be a magicians wagon with a staging area within to perform.
Our electrical specification was to install spot lights as stage lighting, LED strip lighting to light up floating playing cards, a central lighting fitting in a seating and an exterior LED festoon. With a race against time and a very busy day, Green Electrical managed to complete all electrical installation works in time for the big reveal.
