Beyond the Switchboard
Most electricians can only work on your side of the meter. They can't touch the mains cables that connect your property to the street, upgrade your supply from single-phase to three-phase, or fix defects on the network side of your installation.
We're different. As Level 2 Authorised Service Providers (ASP), we hold accreditation from both Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy to perform contestable network work. This means we can legally connect, disconnect, and upgrade your mains supply without waiting for the energy provider.
Whether you've received a defect notice, need more power for a renovation, or are connecting a new build, we handle the complete job—from the street to your switchboard.
Level 2 Capabilities
- Consumer mains upgrades (60A → 100A+)
- Single-phase to 3-phase conversions
- Defect rectification (Ausgrid/Endeavour notices)
- Point of attachment repairs
- Underground service installations
- Private power pole installation
- Metering & CT installations
- Temporary builder's supplies
Received a Defect Notice?
Defect notices from Ausgrid or Endeavour Energy give you a deadline to fix issues with your mains connection—typically 21 days for serious defects. Common issues include:
- Damaged service cables
- Corroded point of attachment
- Non-compliant meter panel
- Undersized consumer mains
We can usually rectify defects within 48 hours of your call. Don't wait for the deadline—contact us immediately.
CASE STUDY: MAINS UPGRADE
From 60A to 100A 3-Phase
This Northern Beaches home had original 1970s mains—60 amp single-phase that couldn't support the new ducted air conditioning, pool equipment, and EV charger the owners wanted to install.
We upgraded the consumer mains from 60A single-phase to 100A three-phase, installed a new meter panel, and replaced the entire switchboard. The home now has capacity for all current and future electrical needs.
60A Single-Phase
Original 1970s installation, undersized mains, outdated metering.
100A Three-Phase
New meter panel, upgraded mains, ready for EV and pool equipment.
What is a Level 2 ASP?
Level 2 Authorised Service Providers are electricians with additional accreditation to work on the "contestable" parts of the electricity network—the section between the street and your meter. Regular electricians cannot legally perform this work.
What Regular Electricians Can Do
- • Work from meter to switchboard
- • Switchboard upgrades
- • Internal wiring and repairs
- • Lighting and powerpoint installation
What Level 2 ASPs Can Do (Plus Above)
- • Connect/disconnect from the network
- • Upgrade consumer mains cables
- • Install/relocate meters
- • Single to three-phase conversions
- • Rectify network defects
- • Private power pole installation
