It was built in 1931. It is also known as the former ELPSC Substation; former Substation No.1518. and the Relay Test Centre. The property is owned by Ausgrid. It was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999.[1] HistorySt. David's Road appears in 1888, with four residents on unidenfied plots on its eastern side. Further development occurred in the early 20th century, under the salesmanship of Richard Stanton, with progressive infill on intervening lots.[2][1] In 1912 the Australian Building Co. is shown as first occupant of St. David's Road near the corner of Parramatta Road and 13 St.David's Road. The Australian Building Co. also appeared as 119 Parramatta Road, between St. Davids Road and O'Connor St. in 1914. The address on the corner of Parramatta Road, no. 131 (now 129-131) was occupied by a grocer or fruiterer, which remained a constant throughout the ensuing period to 1933.[2][1] In January 1921 The Sun newspaper reported a large fire at the Australian Timber Company, on a large site on the corner of Parramatta Road and St. David's Road. The timber yard, owned by F. O. Hedger, former Mayor of Ashfield (and Manager of the Australian Building Co.) noted a weatherboard cottage on the site occupied by a family named Bolton, adjacent to the yard and behind the big furnace.[2][1] The Australian Timber Co. disappeared from Sands Directories between 1924 and 1928. In 1929 a Hudson & Sons, TImber Merchants, appeared at 117 Parramatta Road, suggesting the business was sold to a competitor. Walter Bolton remained at no.13 St.David's Road beyond 1932.[2][1] St. David's Substation was built in 1930 and completed in 1931, by McIntyre & Cable of Undercliffe. When completed it was the ELPSC's second 22/5.5 kV installation and an outdoor yard at the rear of the building accommodated the 22 kV switchgear and transformers. Within the building the main 5.5 kV switchboard was located on the top floor and the ground floor had an auxiliary 5.5 kV switchboard, a distribution transfoer and low-voltage switchboard for local supply, transformers and switchgear for three series street lighting circuits.[3][1] Taken out of service as a substation in the 1960s the site was subsequently used as a maintenance depot and relay testing centre for the Sydney County Council.[3][1] The entablature displays the words " THE ELECTRIC LIGHT & POWER SUPPLY CORPORATION LTD, SUB-STATION, 1931".
