At Chase Electrical, we specialise in delivering high-standard commercial electrical services — even when the job requires working at heights and strict scheduling. Recently, our team was tasked with carrying out a critical overnight project at Westfield Stratford, one of the UK’s busiest retail centres.
Testing and Upgrading 40 Digital Advertisement Screens
The project involved testing and inspecting 40 individual digital advertisement screens on one of Westfield Stratford’s prominent advertisement boards. These screens are essential for delivering high-traffic marketing content, so precision and attention to detail were critical.
Using crane access equipment, our team was safely elevated to perform comprehensive electrical testing on each screen, ensuring they were operating efficiently and free from faults. Every connection and circuit was thoroughly inspected to maintain the reliability expected from such a high-profile installation.
Fuseboard Upgrades for Compliance
In addition to testing, we also carried out a full fuseboard upgrade. The previous setup did not meet the latest electrical safety standards, so we replaced and reconfigured the fuseboard to ensure full compliance with current regulations. Upgrading the distribution board not only improved safety but also enhanced the long-term performance and stability of the entire advertising installation.
Overnight Work to Avoid Downtime
Understanding the importance of keeping the screens live during prime viewing hours, all works were scheduled and completed overnight. This strategic timing meant there was zero disruption to the daily operation of the advertising screens, ensuring uninterrupted exposure for advertisers and maintaining the premium standard expected at Westfield Stratford.
