Powering hospital infrastructure with safe and reliable electrical solutions
Our Southeast QLD team at GAP Industries recently completed a major electrical upgrade project at Greenslopes Private Hospital, a critical facility operated by Ramsay Health Care in Brisbane. This project reinforces GAP’s ongoing commitment to the healthcare sector, delivering safe, efficient infrastructure built to the highest Australian standards.
Electrical modernisation aligned with AS/NZS 3000:2018
The scope of works included switchboard upgrades, enhancements to power distribution, and the implementation of systems in full compliance with AS/NZS 3000:2018, which outlines the essential safety requirements for low-voltage electrical installations in Australia.
Thanks to these upgrades, Greenslopes Private Hospital now has an infrastructure ready to meet the operational demands of a modern medical environment, ensuring power continuity and electrical safety for both clinical staff and patients.
