Project Overview

Active Conductors was engaged to deliver the full electrical package for a heritage-listed, mixed-use redevelopment at 202 King Street, Newtown. The project involved the partial demolition of non-heritage structures while preserving and upgrading the heritage façade. Our works spanned across new residential apartments and commercial tenancies, requiring careful coordination and respect for both historical integrity and modern compliance.

Value: 250K

Builder: Estructura

Scope of Works

• Electrical services for 6 residential apartments and 3 commercial tenancies

• Installation of recessed LED lighting, power, and data/communications throughout

• Design and installation of a new main switchboard

• Relocation of overhead powerlines underground to modernise site power supply

• Compliance with heritage building requirements and preservation protocols

• Coordination with builders and heritage consultants to ensure non-intrusive electrical works

Heritage-Conscious Electrical Installation

Working within a heritage-listed structure, our team ensured all electrical installations respected the existing fabric of the building. Recessed LED lighting and concealed conduit runs allowed us to deliver modern electrical functionality without compromising aesthetic or structural elements.

Mixed-Use Complexity

The project required clear zoning and separation of electrical systems between residential and commercial areas. From apartments to retail-ready commercial tenancies, we provided tailored electrical layouts to suit each use while integrating all services into a single, efficient main switchboard system.

Project Outcome

This project showcases Active Conductors’ ability to manage complex electrical works in heritage and mixed-use developments. From underground power relocation to detailed lighting fit-outs, we delivered a compliant, high-functioning solution that respects Newtown’s character while meeting modern expectations.
