WKK ELECTRICAL LTD APPROACH BLOOMFIELD PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH PROJECT AS A THREE-PART CONTRACT... KEEPINGTHEPOWERSURGING

S tage one of WKK Electrical Limited’s three-pronged approach to the Bloomfield Presbyterian Church project involved the power supply. The challenge here was to install a new system without totally pulling the plug. “We had to install a new NIE supply and switchboard,” explained Gavin Thompson. “This involved the diversion of existing sub-mains supplies to the new switchboard, whilst maintaining the activities in the adjoining church and halls. This was achieved with a phased change-over that ensured a supply throughout the process.” Stage two centred around the refurbishment of the church’s existing halls and offices, comprising new energy efficient lighting from Concord (one of Europe’s most respected architectural lighting brands); heating

control systems; and a state-of-the-art audio visual system by Cullybackey- based company Absolute Technologies. The final stage was all about the impressive new annexe, complete with offices, meeting rooms, activity halls, and kitchen facilities. “Each had a new audio visual system, data systems, dimmable LED lighting, and a passenger lift was also installed in this phase. The Fire & Safety provision for the overall project came from Ashdale.” The Bloomfield Presbyterian Church project was completed two months ahead of schedule, a credit to the main contractor. “WKK Electrical was delighted to have the opportunity to work alongside Leo Matheson Ltd on Bloomfield Presbyterian Church, and on a project connected with a building that has been part of the Belfast landscape for nearly 150 years.”
