The pit!
I don't know if this sort of thing has a particular name, but at work it ism known as the pit. Both the electrical and plumbering teams store stuff and works in that underground workspace. Currently only the plumbers work there since the modules are ceiling-wired, but often they're floor-wired!

You can't see them in the pic, but on the right side, there are a non-continuous row of T12 fixtures. The first one is a double lamp 4ft, the second one is a single lamp 4ft, the third one another double lamp 4ft, and the two last ones are double lamp 8 footers. All but one tube are /DXs.

Also note the red beacon close to the staircase! It's an Adwards AdaptaBeacon, coupled with an Adaptahorn mechanical horn. There's another set like this next to the door in the background. Those are used as signals to tell when modules are about to be moved on the chain, time to move stepladders and drills out of the way!

Most of the time there's a module over. This was just before the next module was being moved. I think it could be worth filming, it's pretty interesting to watch!

it's cool that they let you take pictures. Smile i know some times workplaces don't allow you to take pictures.

Well I don't think they mind in fact. Every few days they receive groups of students and people from the public and show them how the factory works and all. It's not a "closed to the public" area, so I'm sure it doesn't pose any problem. I just make sure nobody is clearly visible on my pics.

Oops. Looks like you missed three guys. Razz Do they sort lamps behind that blue door? Razz Laughing Man. This place sounds like it's fun to work at.
