THE PROJECT
Part of the Old Aberdeen Campus, King’s College is considered the symbolic centre of the ever-expanding university. Pop Up Power Supplies® were honoured to be asked to install three retractable service power units in this area.
The units were required for the outside lawn areas by The Kings College Chapel and Elphinstone Hall to provide outdoor power to marquees used for weddings, corporate and sports events. They are buried out of sight and raised by a turning handle. The cover of each unit is recessed to match the surface surrounding the power supply - in this instance turf.
George Parker, Director of Pop Up Power Supplies® commented, “Aberdeen University is famous for its beautiful architecture and because of this they didn’t want power units around the campus being a permanent feature. Our units were recommended as they provide the necessary outdoor power supply, and when not in use they are simply retracted back into the ground.”
The units are manufactured in stainless steel AISI304 and have an epoxy-polyester powder finish. Tops are available in stainless steel or cast iron. The adaptability of our retractable telescopic feeder pillars make them suitable for all outdoor environments. The “pop up” nature of the units improves the quality and safety of the surrounding area.
Pop Up Power Supplies® offer a wide range of outdoor units to suit most venues, dependent on usage and type of supply, including bollards in a variety of designs. For further information please call us on 0208 2270208.
