Substation maintenance

Gosford Council has resolved to accept a tender from Schneider Electric for the maintenance of a high voltage substation located at Woy Woy Sewerage Treatment Works.

The substation is owned and operated by council.

The sites had been maintained in the past by the hire of contractors on a needs basis.

Lump sum tenders were recently called for the maintenance of the sites for a period of up to six years, with three periods of two years.

Performance would be reviewed every two years.

Tenders were received from three companies being Locke Engineering, Wollongong, Nilsen Electric, Sydney, and Schneider Electric, Sydney.
