Australian National Maritime Museum boardwalk power & lighting

This is a live, public, heritage site on Sydney Harbour, so the work had to happen without taking the museum or its vessels offline. The historic submarine and destroyer moored at the wharf stayed powered on a backup generator while the wharf cabling was replaced underneath them.

The lighting was designed in-house and runs on a DALI control system with C-Bus relays, so the precinct lighting can be set, zoned and adjusted across the boardwalk, the terrace and the offshore poles. Working on the harbour edge also meant marine-grade detailing and cathodic protection to the seawall to stand up to the saltwater environment.

The project was entered in the NECA NSW 2026 Excellence Awards for lighting design and installation.
