Case Study: Electrical Infrastructure Upgrade in Glasgow Vehicle Repair Centre
Project Overview:
Our Engineering team at West Group Technical Services embarked on a significant electrical infrastructure upgrade at a prominent vehicle repair centre located in the heart of Glasgow. The project involved the installation of a 600mm ladder rack, suspended at high level to support the new electrical system.
Objectives:
- Enhance the electrical capacity of the facility to support advanced equipment and operations.
- Ensure the safety and reliability of the electrical infrastructure.
- Minimise disruption to the daily operations of the vehicle repair centre.
Scope of Work:
1. Ladder Rack Installation:
- Installation of 600mm ladder rack suspended at a high level throughout the facility.
- Ensuring secure and stable support for future cable installations.
2. High-Level Containment:
- Over 80 meters of high-level containment installed to manage and protect cables.
- Use of high-quality materials and precise engineering to ensure durability and compliance with safety standards.
3. Cable Installation:
- Pulling in over one kilometre of 95mm steel wire armoured (SWA) cable.
- Strategic routing of cables to optimise space and maintain accessibility for maintenance.
Challenges and Solutions:
- Working at Height: Ensuring safety while working at high levels required careful planning and the use of specialised equipment. Our team adhered to stringent safety protocols to mitigate risks.
- Operational Continuity: To minimise disruption to the vehicle repair centre's operations, the project was executed in phases during off-peak hours.
- Precision and Coordination: The complex installation required meticulous coordination among team members to ensure each phase was completed efficiently and accurately.
Outcome:
The project was successfully completed on time and within client budget. The new electrical infrastructure now provides robust support for the vehicle repair centre's operations, enhancing both safety and efficiency. The high-level containment and ladder rack installation have facilitated a clean and organised Client Feedback:
