Challenges

We provided adjustments to existing in ground pits and conduits to suit new and adjusted ground levels.

Materials and construction methods were developed that were suitable against vandalism.

After initial excavations extensive dewatering was required to access required depths near the river.

Power was required to be maintained through the park during shut downs. Hender lee installed numerous back up generator sites to maintain power throughout the park.

Coordination with differing interests with stakeholder representatives.

Civil /excavations and directional drilling was required through extensive existing services.

We provided isolations and testing on some of the most critical Crown site HV feeder breakers.

The existing Burswood Park 22KV network cabling presented pre-existing faults highlighted  during the testing and commissioning of the system during the network upgrade works. Hender lee utilised specialised equipment to locate pre-existing cable faults over kilometres of existing cabling. Urgent repairs to faults were provided under back up power during shutdown conditions
