Replaced Streetlighting and Installed Smart Controls on Larapinta Drive (Lovegrove to Mparntwe)

About

Department of Logistics and Infrastructure awarded a contract to M G Electrical Services Pty Ltd for replacing streetlighting and installing smart control systems on Larapinta Drive between Lovegrove Drive and Mparntwe Drive.

The contractor was required to coordinate with the Power and Water Corporation for all system isolation works; supply and install Class 1 and Class 2 single- and double-insulated luminaires on existing nine- and twelve-metre columns; replace existing switch packs with new units including surge protection and residual current protection in accordance with PWC standards; provide and maintain a traffic management plan for the duration of the works; dispose of redundant material from site; provide all handover documentation and issue "as constructed" drawings in PDF and DWG formats; and submit a certificate of electrical compliance to the road owner confirming AS3000 compliance and highlighting any areas of non-compliance.

The contract also required smart control installations for all streetlights between Lovegrove Drive and Mparntwe Drive, with smart control installations and smart control nodes provided by the client, and noted that streetlights between Lovegrove Drive and Taylor Street had already been converted from HPS to LED so only smart control installation works were required for those.
