The control gear used was 415V, 2kW reactor gear mounted in control gear cabinets (enclosures) mounted on the lighting masts.The lighting in the front straight was upgraded in 2005 when the Siemens floodlights were replaced by 2kW Siteco floodlights with the control gear mounted in control gear cubicles mounted adjacent to the masts.The lighting installation employs 190 floodlights distributed over 47 No 10m masts and 6 No 20m masts; a gantry over the Judges Box also carries some floodlights.Work is NOT required in the following areas of the track lighting system:Grid power supply and diesel generator supplySite Main Switchboard and Harness Lighting DBLighting control systemWork is required in the following areas:Removal of all existing masts and floodlightsReplacement of all masts and headframesConstruction of all new mast footingsInstallation of LED floodlights on new headframesInstallation of LED drivers in new control gear cubiclesUnderground wiring to all mastsFinal wiring to all LED floodlightsAiming and commissioning of the lighting systemThe project timeline is for the complete lighting system to be installed and commissioned within a 10-weeks period starting in mid-February 2026.
