The Proposed Project

The proposed work involves the design and repair to the electrical infrastructure at G Jetty. G Jetty is home to the Fleet Diving Unit Pacific, and the unit has had to temporarily relocate their vessels and training activities/operations due to the electrical issues.

The proposed repairs will include the extensive replacement of cabling and electrical panels and associated equipment. The location of repairs is from the substation location at the wharfhead's concrete approach, down to the end of the jetty structure.
