NECA congratulates all the winners and certificate of commendation recipients.
An “inter-building competition" is run, so that the most energy-efficient building can be identified and displayed to the building occupants through the Energy Dashboards.
This project involved the replacement of over 650 normal fluorescent tubes with either high efficient LED tubes or replacement LED Panels.
Medium Voltage switchboard installations and Low Voltage works spread across the entire 4.8KM work face. High levels of training were required to overcome complex earthing requirements and difficulties with terminations of Medium Voltage cables.
The Australian Data Centres - Stage One project was located in an existing warehouse building in Mitchell and required the conversion of the building into a 3000sq/m, Tier 3 data centre, with complete power and cooling redundancy.
The works involved extensive in-ground services, a new mezzanine floor with in-slab services, in-ground diesel tanks, fuel and laundering pumps, two High Voltage switch rooms, High Voltage transformers, two Low Voltage main switch rooms, two Diesel UPS, DC rectifiers and distribution boards, three lead-in paths for communications, and SCADA monitoring and control.
Incorporating all these under one contract, proved both challenging and rewarding, for the management and senior staff of Shepherd Electrical.
The DHS Greenway project, encompasses 26,000 square metres of office space, café & specialist meeting and broadcast facilities, along with 725 parking spaces, all achieving a 4.0 star Greenstar rating.
Fredon were faced with an extremely tight program to produce a fully documented, coordinated & certified design and undertake all procurement & installation tasks. Due to program constraints, many of the engineering & construction tasks were undertaken out-of-sequence, which added a significant level of logistical complexity.
Offsite prefabrication of cable containment and sub-circuit cabling, along with the design and development of specialised trollies and cradles, enabled the site team to expedite installations, without the need to double handle equipment.
