Underground Electrical Infrastructure Upgrade

EDC Systems QLD supported an aged care facility following multiple underground electrical faults that resulted in loss of supply to several resident homes.

The initial response included emergency fault-finding and temporary supply works to help reinstate power while the condition of the existing electrical infrastructure was investigated. Following testing and a site audit, the existing direct-buried underground cabling was found to be no longer fit for purpose.

EDC subsequently completed an engineered replacement solution, including approximately 200 metres of under-boring, new underground conduits, electrical pillars and upgraded cabling. The works were carefully planned around existing underground services, landscaped areas, driveways and resident access to help minimise disruption across the site.

The transition from the existing supply to the new infrastructure was staged to help reinstate reliable power as efficiently as practicable, with the old faulty cabling disconnected, made safe and clearly labelled.
