Affinity Electrical Technologies partnered with Tennis ACT and Tennis Australia on an exciting project to elevate their facility’s lighting infrastructure on courts 4, 5, 6 ahead of the Canberra International Tournament. Our scope of work focused on installation of 2 x new additional 18 meter towers to be able to meet international tennis lighting standards and delivering a tailored solution to enhance functionality and energy efficiency across the venue.
Key elements of the project included installing ELA lighting Unilux LED fittings and supporting infrastructure designed to meet high-performance standards for international match play. ELA light fittings come pre-aimed on their spigots, so the lux levels are guaranteed. The project also incorporated working around existing services as the courts already had existing lighting systems and excavation was performed in a non-invasive way to protect services and mounting solutions to seamlessly integrate new electrical connections.
This collaboration was only approved 14 weeks prior to the tournament which meant that AET had to be responsible for accurately planning and staging the installation whilst working around a “live” site, showing our commitment to delivering cutting-edge solutions for premier sporting facilities.
