Balpara was engaged as the primary electrical consultant for the AS 3000 electrical upgrade of the Nagambie Holiday and Caravan Park. This included upgrading the main electrical supply, and devising both the electrical and NBN design for 46 new lifestyle cabins, intended for over 55s accommodation.
Balpara was tasked with the electrical and communication design for the upgrade of the Nagambie Holiday and Caravan Park, located at the doorstep of Lake Nagambie and the Strathbogie Ranges.
After performing Maximum Demand investigations, Balpara recommended sourcing the new electrical infrastructure supply from the main electrical switchboard located next to the Pole Substation. Due to the location of the new cabins, this meant having to run approximately 600 metres of large electrical sub-main cables from the main electrical switchboard to the two new electrical distribution sub boards of the cabins. To do this Balpara had to negotiate existing infrastructure in order to find an acceptable cable route.
Balpara was able to reduce the electrical load and therefore demand charges, creating a more cost-effective energy solution for our client.
All electrical designs were performed to AusNet and AS 3000 standards.
