4. Condition assessment

Scored per the Condition Scoring & Rating Model (six standards-referenced dimensions, 0–4 on the P-scale). Rating is gated — a single safety/structural P2 breach sets RED regardless of the averaged Index.

DimensionScoreGradeObservation
Electrical safety & compliance0None observedNone observed
Structural & enclosure integrity3Major / safety (P2)Enclosure & chassis mechanical integrity
Corrosion & protective coating3Major / safety (P2)Corrosion of fixings, bars and coatings; general fouling
Ingress protection0None observedNone observed
Access & working space0None observedNone observed
Thermal / fire & component0None observedNone observed
Rationale. The gated rating is RED, driven by structural / enclosure damage and corrosion to fixings and bars (Condition Index 30/100). RED reflects a gate breach — a safety/structural P2 or an AS/NZS 3000 Cl 2.10 clearance non-compliance — that cannot be averaged away.

5. Defects

Field-observed defect(s) for this board, itemised into discrete findings — each with its own priority and category.

RefCategoryDefectPri
D-01 Structural Safe-T chassis — structural chassis integrity concern P2
D-02 Corrosion Severe rust to door mechanism and enclosure P3
D-03 Housekeeping Internal dust / dirt accumulation P4
D-04 Corrosion Minor pitting to enclosure / structure P3

6. Suitability for the LED works

Suitability for LED worksYES

The new LED floodlight load and driver footprint are materially smaller than the legacy HID gear removed, and the existing 3-phase supply, 95 mm² feed and cabinet isolation are adequate for the new works. This conclusion is universal across the fleet and is independent of condition.
