3. Applications

The PAR can is usually the basis of an entertainment lighting system and is suitable for small mobile systems, big tours and permanent installations. A popular portable solution for the mobile DJ or small band is to mount sets of four PAR56 cans on a tripod stand, and use individual birdies (PAR16) and pinspots (PAR36) to light features and mirrorballs.

In larger systems, the ‘6-lamp bar’ is common - this consists of six PAR64 long-nose cans mounted on a bar which has a multipin connector wired to either the Socapex or Lectriflex standards. This allows connection to dimming and control systems.
