The Queen Alexander Bridge – the existing power supply route - was due to be decommissioned due to age and phasing out oil-filled cables in favour of the New Wear Bridge.
Northern Power Grid required a unique installation involving power cables being suspended under the bridge and above the water in Emtelle ducts.
Balfour Beatty contracted to install cables and sought Ellis for duct support solution.
Ellis collaborated with Balfour Beatty:
Developed a product to suspend ducts beneath the bridge.
Created an installation methodology.
Solution involved 12 standard 2F+ clamps with a customised bespoke stainless-steel structure.
Supplied a total of 240 assemblies.
Frames hang below the bridge, supporting Emtelle ducts, with power cables installed within these ducts.
