Supply deliver and install additional 2-36 watts fluorescent
light fitting with electronic ballast symmetrically to the new
ceiling lay-out, complete with required control circuit,
diffuser/louver and wiring in metal trunking or conduit
connected to the existing DB’s. Trace existing electrical
circuits, then remove and/or relocate all affected fittings,
power points, wirings and conduits in the way of
construction. Re-label and update electrical circuit
distribution for all the affected power and lighting circuitry.

workers need to be
cognizant of the
fact that some
people are more
sensitive to these

which may make it
necessary to move
