St. Patrick's offer religious, spaces for community gatherings, and support services for vulnerable populations. The aging electrical system is particularly worrisome. Outdated wiring, faulty cabling, and inadequate earthing have resulted in multiple incidents where individuals have suffered electric shocks within the premises. These hazards pose life-threatening risks to congregants, staff, and visitors alike. The challenges faced by St. Patrick's are not just structural but deeply human.
The church's solar energy system earlier installation have created significant safety risks, including the potential for electric shocks and fires, endangering the lives of children, staff, and visitors. Further The power disruptions severely hinder the community center's ability to provide essential services, impacting the local community's access to education and social support.
The project involves installing proper earthing systems, surge protection devices, and lightning arrestors to safeguard the church's solar system. Faulty solar panels will be replaced, cable management improved, and electrical safety ensured with load measurement devices to reduce fire and shock risks. Further, a new 5KW on-grid solar system will be installed for the community center, providing uninterrupted power to support educational and social activities. Structural repairs need to be done.
The long-term impact of this project will be transformative for St. Patrick's Church, its community center, and the surrounding 2,000 families. By addressing the fundamental issues of energy safety and reliability, the project will create a secure and functional environment where the church can continue to serve as a spiritual and communal hub for generations to come.
