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.
| Dimension | Score | Grade | Observation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Electrical safety & compliance | 0 | None observed | None observed |
| Structural & enclosure integrity | 0 | None observed | None observed |
| Corrosion & protective coating | 2 | Moderate (P3) | Corrosion of fixings, bars and coatings; general fouling |
| Ingress protection | 2 | Moderate (P3) | Sealing of penetrations against dust / water ingress |
| Access & working space | 0 | None observed | None observed |
| Thermal / fire & component | 0 | None observed | None observed |
Rationale. Rated AMBER (Condition Index 15/100). 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.
| Ref | Category | Defect | Pri |
|---|---|---|---|
| D-01 | Housekeeping | Internal dust / dirt accumulation | P4 |
| D-02 | Corrosion | Significant rust / corrosion to enclosure, fixings and bars | P3 |
| D-03 | Corrosion | Minor surface rust to fixings and bars | P4 |
| D-04 | Ingress | Unsealed cable penetrations at base / gland plate | 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, 16 mm² feed and cabinet isolation are adequate for the new works. This conclusion is universal across the fleet and is independent of condition.
