Brief Scope and Execution of works

In 2014, Alpha Island Tech started supply, installation and renovation of street lighting over the Barsha residential community as per DEWA regulations. This was a vast area of construction, where thousands of poles were installed along with excavation of trenches for cabling up to 33kV. This required a thorough scrutiny of drawings and professionalism across all teams to ensure not to damage any existing service. Our scope involved supply & installation of:

  • Road Lighting Works: SL Feeder pillars, poles and fittings, earthing systems, excavation, power supply and cables, removal of existing columns, LV control network switch gears, distribution boards

     

  • Road works: Diversion works, connections to existing electrical network, additional Traffic Signal systems and Vehicle Loop Detector


The work was completed within contract deadline to the complete satisfaction of all parties.
