Over 5km of electrical busbar energised at Magna Park!
VolkerFitzpatrick recently installed and energised over 5km of 630 to 1,250-amp busbar at Plot 520 Magna Park, a fulfilment centre in Milton Keynes.
Following the construction of the 790,000ft2 facility in September 2018, the specialist fit out contract is currently one of the UK’s largest busbar projects and will feed the centre’s state-of-the-art automated mechanical handling equipment.
Plot 520 will be an omnichannel distribution centre, capable of receiving, processing and dispatching goods ordered from retail units in London, the South and South-West.
As part of the specialist fit out, our team is also in the process of installing:
- 60km of sprinkler pipework
- 33km of lighting trunking
- 19km of electrical containment
- 14,000 LED light fittings
Matt Goodier, project manager for VolkerFitzpatrick, said: “I am delighted that we have been able to take on the challenge of completing such a large and complex busbar project, as part of our work at Plot 520. The team has collaborated closely with stakeholders throughout, to ensure a high-quality delivery.”
