Project Scope

Installation of New Festoon Assembly

This undertaking entailed the dismantling of the existing setup and the installation of a new festoon, alongside the replacement of runway beams and toe arm. The newly installed festoon cabling was integrated into the existing cable ladder system, extending to both land-based and onboard enclosures and equipment. Comprehensive termination and testing of all cabling were carried out, supporting the efficient re-commissioning of the machine, which was subsequently returned to operation according to the planned schedule.

The project was marked by a significant commitment of over 4,000 manhours across a span of 13 days, and it is noteworthy that this extensive work was accomplished without any reportable safety incidents.
