Ivybridge House, 1-5 Adam Street, London WC2N 6LE
Distribution Equipment Installation
The existing main distribution equipment at Ivybridge House had reached the end of its life cycle, while the pre-existing UKPN main incoming supply was inadequate for the building’s growing development and occupancy. TNS Contractors successfully executed a comprehensive overhaul of the main incoming distribution equipment, with UKPN installing a new 630A main incoming supply.
To ensure minimal disruption to the building occupants and their businesses, a phased approach was implemented. The new distribution equipment was installed before disconnecting and relocating the existing sub mains, resulting in 0% disruption to operations.
Works comprised of:
- Coordinating and organising other contractors, particularly UKPN
- Working outside of normal working hours and days
- Installation of small power and emergency lighting
- Deployment of galvanised containment such as ladder racks and conduits
- Implementation of a 630A FP600 supply
- Migration and replacement of existing SWA sub-mains
- Testing, commissioning, and certification.
