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 & compliance1Minor (P4)Direct-contact / earthing / labelling integrity
Structural & enclosure integrity0None observedNone observed
Corrosion & protective coating2Moderate (P3)Corrosion of fixings, bars and coatings; general fouling
Ingress protection2Moderate (P3)Sealing of penetrations against dust / water ingress
Access & working space0None observedNone observed
Thermal / fire & component0None observedNone observed
Rationale. Rated AMBER (Condition Index 21.3/100). Field condition records corrosion to fixings and bars and unsealed penetrations / ingress.

5. Defects

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

RefCategoryDefectPri
D-01 Corrosion Significant rust / corrosion to enclosure, fixings and bars P3
D-02 Labelling Degraded / peeling warning and schedule labels P4
D-03 Ingress Unsealed cable penetrations at base / gland plate P3
D-04 Ingress Water ingress / internal staining P3
D-05 Housekeeping Internal dust / dirt accumulation P4
D-06 Corrosion Minor surface rust to fixings and bars P4

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, 16 mm² feed and cabinet isolation are adequate for the new works. This conclusion is universal across the fleet and is independent of condition.

7. Photographic evidence

16 site photographs. Frames outlined in orange are keyed to a priority defect (fire, structural, access or ingress evidence).
