Electrical:
• All inline booths that order a basic power drop will have their power dropped at the back of
the booth unless otherwise requested. No labor will be added to this, only the charge for
power will be incurred.
• If power is requested to be placed anywhere else in the booth, labor and material will be
charged. Below are common prices for electrical services.
• Note – If you need power in your booth prior to the showfloor opening please order 24-hour
power as most locations do not turn on power until ½ hour prior to the show opening and turn
power off ½ hour after the show closes. Double the rate for power if you would like 24-hr
power.
