Our Scope
Meter moves, consumer mains and supply upgrades
AB Electrical carries out Level 2 work for meter relocations, consumer mains upgrades, disconnections, reconnections and private poles. We check the property address, existing connection and proposed work to establish the relevant distributor and metering-provider requirements.
Supply and connection work
- Meter moves and associated electrical work
- Consumer mains and supply-capacity upgrades
- Disconnections and reconnections
- Overhead and underground supply repairs
- Private poles and defect-notice rectification
Moving a meter is not simply a matter of choosing a new spot on the wall. The position, access, cable route and metering arrangements need checking. For additional appliances or a renovation, we assess the proposed load before recommending a supply change.
Planning The Work
What needs changing—and who needs to be involved?
Consumer mains carry the supply to the main switchboard. The switchboard distributes it to the property’s circuits. More circuit space or safety-switch protection does not necessarily mean the incoming supply needs upgrading; the assessment should consider both.
Some connection and service-line tasks require a Level 2 provider and appropriately authorised workers. We confirm the actual scope and network requirements, rather than treating all work near a meter as the same job.
Stay clear of damaged or fallen lines and report them to the electricity distributor. Call 000 if there is immediate danger.
