• Field instrumentation such as level, flow, pressure and temperature sensors
• Ultrasonic/radar level instrumentation
• Flow meters and associated cabling
• Actuated valves, motorised valves and associated control wiring
• Telemetry/SCADA systems and remote monitoring equipment
• Process control and automation systems
• Dosing equipment and chemical dosing systems
• Blowers, compressors and aeration equipment
• Electrical supplies to screening, grit removal and sludge treatment equipment
• Emergency lighting, general lighting and small power
• Cable containment, tray, ladder, conduit and trunking
• Installation and termination of LV power and control cabling
