Electrical Installation Condition Reporting: Virgin 1st Class Lounge, Gatwick Airport.
We were instructed by Cofely on behalf of Virgin Atlantic to inspect the electrical installation within the 1st Class passenger lounge at Gatwick Airport.
Our brief was simple, carry out all testing, be as invisible as possible and most importantly, everything must be working again in time for the first arriving passengers, no exceptions.
This is a prestige area and the airline is rightly very careful about allowing any work in the public view. because of these restrictions we worked unusual hours to ensure that the client's needs were satisfied.
Circuit testing was performed on all circuits including the hair salon, kitchen, bar and staff areas.
Where possible detailed testing of every circuit was completed and the client was provided with both PDF and bound copies of the test results.
Obviously security clearance was required for our staff to work within this area. This was obtained with little or no difficulty due to the stringent employment checks L&C already has in place.
