Premier Technical Services Group Ltd (PTSG) has been contracted to deliver specialist electrical services at The King Charles III Sacristy in Westminster.
HM The Queen has become Patron of the project to create a new building at Westminster Abbey – to be named The King Charles III Sacristy in honour of His Majesty The King – which will transform the welcome offered to the millions of people who come from around the world to enjoy one of the world’s great churches.
The building will be constructed on the footprint of Henry III’s medieval Great Sacristy. Built in the 1250s and an integral part of Henry’s church, the Sacristy was where the monks kept vestments, altar linens and other artefacts needed for their daily worship, allowing the Abbey itself to be preserved in all its beauty and wonder as a sacred space. There are indications that the Sacristy also played a crucial role in the life of the Abbey as a place for the formation of processions on church and state occasions.
In this contract, engineers from PTSG Electrical Services Ltd will provide a new lightning protection system to protect the new facility and its users in the event of an electrical storm. PTSG is the UK’s leading provider of lightning and surge protections services, delivering testing, inspection, maintenance and upgrade services in addition to designing and installing new systems.
