Only the service sockets of the electrical system can be used during fitting and dismantling, within the power limits indicated.

During the stand disassembly phase, it is necessary to verify that the electrical system power be disconnected. Loads must not be applied to raised structures.

All instruments left unattended at the stand for particular reasons must be deactivated. The emission of smoke, dust and noise may be performed only within the levels allowed by law. Because of the simultaneous presence of several workers, companies are reminded that the supply of personal protective equipment to their employees in compliance with the law with regard to the generation of dust or noise cannot guarantee respect of the law due to the presence of workers from other companies.
Art. 34 – Pordenone Fiere Spa is equipped with its own fire-fighting team and fire equipment (fire extinguishers, hydrants, etc.). Therefore, in case of a hazardous situation, the fire-fighting team must be notified immediately by means of fire alarms located throughout the Exhibition Centre.
