Derby's Street Lighting PFI Contract

Abbot Close, Oakwood

The equipment being removed consisted of the following items in 1997:

Seq. No. Lamp Number Location Lamp Type Watt Isolation Point
1 6783 OS NOS 3/5 SXPL2 35  
2 6784 OS NOS 9/11 SXPL2 35

5 6787 ADJ NO 12 SXPL2 35  
6 6788 6 FROM BISHOPS DR SXPL1 35  
7 6789 ON FP SXPL1 35  

The following photographs were taken on Sunday, 7th November 2010.

All but one of the outgoing columns supported remotely-geared Simplex Aries 35 Watt SOX lanterns at the time of removal.

The second column along the road was fitted with the 'anomaly' lantern - an early 1980s' Thorn Beta 5. Presumably, an Aries was originally fitted, but required replacing after less than 10 years' service for whatever reason.
