RFT2023-34 011 SPS G3 Electrical Switchboard

Summary and scope

Sewer Pump Station (SPS) G3 on Centro Way, Gympie is scheduled for upgrading with the construction of a new wet well and storage tank to be installed on the other side of the roundabout from the existing pump station; the old pump station will be demolished as part of this project. Council requires the design, fabrication and installation of a new electrical switchboard and controls that will be required for the new pump station. The electrical contractor undertaking these works is expected develop a detailed design with an RPEQ Electrical Engineer and to work closely with Council and their chosen civil and mechanical contractor, who will be responsible for all civil and mechanical works for the project. The site is a major part of Councils sewage network and as such maintaining operation of the existing SPS G3will form a critical part of the project. The contractor’s methodology for the installation of the new switchboard will need to suit the electrical, mechanical and operational aspects for the pump station whilst maintaining a high level of safety and zero environmental impact to what is a highly visible and critical site just off the Bruce Highway in Gympie.
