What does an electrician do on water infrastructure projects?
Electricians on water infrastructure projects install, repair and maintain the electrical systems that power pumps, sensors, control panels and monitoring devices. This work ensures water and sewerage systems operate safely and efficiently. Tasks may include wiring motors, integrating PLCs (programmable logic controllers), setting up alarms or telemetry systems, and ensuring compliance with relevant safety and environmental regulations. These electricians work alongside engineers, project managers and utilities providers to meet strict standards.
Are special licences required to work on sewer and water infrastructure?
Yes, electricians working on these projects often need more than a standard electrical licence. Depending on the site and work involved, they may need confined space certifications, high-risk work licences or additional training in hazardous environments. Public infrastructure projects may also require accreditation with local councils, water authorities or bodies such as the Clean Energy Council or WPCG, depending on system requirements. Always check the credentials of your contractor before engaging them for this type of work.
Why is telemetry important in water infrastructure?
Telemetry systems are critical in sewer and water infrastructure because they allow remote monitoring and control of pumps, levels, and flows. This means operators can respond quickly to faults, minimise downtime and reduce the risk of overflows or supply disruptions. Telemetry can also log data for analysis, helping identify maintenance needs before problems occur. These systems are often linked with SCADA platforms and require robust, secure electrical integration.
