Uniting Kamilaroi aged care, Lane Cove

Uniting upgraded the electrical infrastructure of its Kamilaroi aged care home in Lane Cove in 2025. Rogers Construction Group ran the project and engaged Vorick Group for the electrical work, from August to November.

An aged care home cannot be switched off while its switchboards are replaced, so the home stayed live on a temporary load centre throughout. Behind that we finalised the design, made the old installation safe and removed it, and installed new conduits, consumer mains and submains, two main switchboards and two main distribution boards, the light, power and air-conditioning boards, earthing and fire rating, with the network connection through our accredited partner.

A 600 kVA standby generator now backs the home's supply. Handover included testing, as-built drawings and training. Kamilaroi is one of three projects we have delivered for Rogers Construction Group, with Rutherford Business Park and Chifley College Dunheved.
