Defect description

AWR sub-station

SWR sub-station

Sewage plant substation

All access doors should be replaced by fire


doors, the wooden doors are starting to rot
and the single door frame is rusting. (MMD
O/P)
Both the single & Double door locking
systems should be changed to allow selflocking and a quick release system to exit
the switchgear room in an emergency. (Civil
Maintenance)
No flash suit signs on the doors. (EMD)
Fire extinguisher last inspected in August
2015 (Fire station)
The entire switchgear room needs to be
cleaned. (EMD)
There is no secondary exit available as a
steel bar has been welded across the double
doors in order to keep out burglars. This
poses significant danger to the operator,
should a breaker explode while inside the
Sub-Station the operator will have only one
way out. The 2 person rule must absolutely
be applied here when operating is being
done. (risk & assurance)
