Pigeon Hole – Power & Water Corporation Control Panel Engineering
Main Control Cabinet Engineering, PLC/HMI Configuration & Multi-Panel Integration
Project Snapshot
Power & Water Corporation required three fully engineered control panels for deployment across live water and sewerage infrastructure at Pigeon Hole in the Northern Territory.
TEC delivered the complete engineering package, including panel design, fabrication, PLC/HMI configuration, telemetry integration, Factory Acceptance Testing, and full project documentation, providing a fully verified controls solution ready for site integration.
Location: Pigeon Hole, NT
Client: Power & Water
Sector: Government
Completed: January 2024
Contract Value:$1.5m panel contract
The Challenge
Power & Water required a complete controls engineering solution incorporating:
One Sewage Pump Station (SPS) control panel
Two bore control panels
Integrated telemetry and SCADA capability
Full operational testing and documentation before deployment
The panels needed to be engineered, fabricated, configured, and tested to support integration into a live operational environment servicing critical water infrastructure.
What TEC Delivered
TEC delivered the complete end-to-end controls engineering package, including:
Design and construction of all three control panels
Engineering and configuration of Allen-Bradley PLC systems
EXOR HMI programming and interface configuration
Integration of telemetry and SCADA functionality
Development of control logic and field device coordination
Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT)
Integrated Panel Testing (IPT)
Compilation of FAT and testing records
Preparation of as-built documentation and final drawing packages
The completed system was engineered to support reliable long-term operation and seamless integration into Power & Water’s existing infrastructure environment.
The Outcome
The project was delivered on time and within budget, with no safety incidents, delays, or rework required.
The completed package delivered:
Three fully tested and operational control panels
Integrated telemetry and SCADA capability
Verified PLC and HMI functionality
Complete operational and as-built documentation
Reliable controls infrastructure ready for live deployment
The result was a fully engineered and verified controls solution supporting the long-term operation of critical regional water and sewerage infrastructure.
