ESTA Posts Revised Standard for Mounting Overhead Equipment for Public Review

BSR E1.53, a revision of ANSI E1.53-2016, Overhead Mounting of Luminaires, Lighting Accessories, and Other Portable Devices: Specification and Practice, has been posted for public review on the ESTA website at http://estalink.us/pr. The standard covers specifications for the primary and secondary mounting devices for portable stage and studio luminaires and accessories (e.g., C-clamps and safety cables). It also covers their use. The existing standard is being revised to clarify marking requirements and environmental considerations. Comments are due before November 20, 2019.
