Case Study: Electrical Infrastructure Upgrade at CBS Arena, Coventry
Midland Electrical & Construction has an ongoing relationship with the CBS Arena in Coventry, consistently supporting the venue’s evolving electrical and infrastructure needs. As one of the Midlands’ iconic venues, CBS Arena requires reliable, large-scale electrical work carried out to the highest standards and Midland Electrical continues to deliver just that.
The Challenge
CBS Arena needed to enhance the power distribution capabilities across several rooms within the facility. This required installing new cable containment routes and ensuring secure, efficient cable management across key zones of the arena. The job called for expert planning and a skilled team that could deliver within tight deadlines while maintaining safety and operational standards.

Our Solution
Midland Electrical installed a series of metal cable trays to guide and secure the routing of electrical lines across different parts of the arena. This was crucial for both organisation and safety, ensuring all wiring was neatly contained and easily serviceable in the future.
One of the major elements of the project included pulling through a heavy-duty power cable – a complex task that required coordination, strength, and precision. This cable was a critical component, supplying power to newly developed areas within the arena. Our team ensured the cable was installed with care, using the right equipment and expertise to avoid any damage or disruption.
The Result
- Efficient containment system installed across key sections of CBS Arena
- Safe and secure routing of a high-capacity power cable
- Minimal disruption to arena operations throughout the project
- Strengthened partnership with CBS Arena through consistent delivery and professionalism
